Families from USp(32)
The same trick to descent to three generations can be done starting from the 495 of Sp(32). We are on it, as usual, in physicsforums https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/the-wrong-turn-of-string-theory-our-world-is-susy-at-low-energies.485247/page-13#post-5913658 As noted there, we still lack of a variant showing the L-R chirality of the SM. I wonder if we could use some exotic models from E6 or E8…

wrong turns
Woit (What the Hell is Going On?) and Motl (wrong-turn-basins-gut-critics) have sparked a new round of the discussion on the existence, or not, of a wrong turn in the development of theoretical particle physics. The excuse this time is some comments of Nima Arkani-Hamed in a couple of recent lectures, but the running joke is…

Families from SO(32)
$latex \begin{array}{llll} 496=\\ {\bf (1,24,1^c) }&+{\bf [1,15,\bar 3^c]}&+{\bf [1, \bar {15}, 3^c]}&+\\ 1,24,8^c&+[1,10,\bar 6^c]&+[1,\bar {10},6^c]&+\\ (1,1,8^c)&&&+\\&(2,5,3^c)&+(2,\bar 5,\bar 3^c)&+\\ &(1,1,1^c)&+[1,1,1^c]\\ \end{array} $ (or from SO(30), or perhaps just O(10)xU(3) or U(5)xU(3)) Point is, the first three lines seem to contain three generations with electric and colour charge. It is possible to break the 24 and 15…
