Quaternion Supergravity predicts the Standard Model

Abstract

It is shown that extending Osp(4/1) supergravity to quaternion co-ordinates to get HU(4/1) gives the standard model with 3 generations of fermions, U(1)xSU(2)xSU(3) bosons plus 2 gravitinos, 1 graviton, and nothing else. It is shown using the method of components that this is the largest supergravity theory possible. Briefly, we look at how this relates to 16D M-Theory (which I call Q-Theory). I hope others will be encouraged to work on this idea. This paper was replaced because it now includes conclusions on the fermionic sector such as the number of generations.
