Abstract

We present a flavor-chiral version of the rishon model. The troublesome αC→0 't Hooft limit is satisfied in a non-exotic manner. The scheme is SU(7) grand unified. Its uniqueness stems from the fact that a realistic SU(n)HC scenario is SU(N) embeddable only provided n=3, with 4 (or 5) preons involved. A total number of three quark/lepton families is dictated by the overall renormalizability. The electric charge serves as the fourth color.
