1980 Physical Rev. Lett. 45 1135/2 This model contains attractive properties which are absent from models based on simple SU(N>5) groups, but still suffers from some conventional diseases... The scheme is too small to incorporate the hypercolor alternative.
1981 Nature 5 Mar. 13/1 E. Eichten (Harvard) described the so-called ‘hypercolour’ or ‘technicolour’ theories that contain the Higgs particles as composite bound states and in some formulations require substructure to the leptons and quarks.
1983 Sci. Amer. Apr. 56/3 The prequarks are assumed to have hypercolor.
1990 Physics Lett. B. 252 426 The introduction of sarks calls for a new quantum number, which is referred to as hypercolor.
