A quark is not a tiny sphere. The formal model idea is based on a vector group which is constructed like an outer vector product. The vectors perform dynamic movements. Two vectors (vector pair) which rotate in opposite directions in a plane have an increasing and diminishing result vector as consequence. At the same time the vector group rotates about the bisectrix of the vector pair. The two movements matched to each other result in that the tip of the resultant vector draws so-called geometrical locus loops in a plane. The u- and the d-quarks have characteristic loops. Each vector group has its own orthogonal, hyperbolic space. By joining three such spaces each, two ...
