Well, if you change your mind, I was just curious what someone who is actually in the field, and whom I could ask, is curious about, even if it's just a few-word response (eg, heterotic string theory or whatever). I hope your "weekend" is sufficiently restorative.
I'm grumpy when I get home from work after working 22 days straight and still having four days to go before my "weekend" starts.

As of what I think. I currently don't have much time to think about things outside of work, and I also spend a lot of time on writing and designing digital art for my graphic novel.
However, the last thing I read up on was on supergravity of arbitrary orders, which basically boiled down to that it's possible to express the Kälher potential and superpotential with a single function.
Either way, there's a ton of interesting phenomena and relations that I think you guys might be interested in ranging from the influence of the expansion of the universe on the strong- and weak force, to black holes and neutron starts, to other cool quantum mechanic effects. But if I start writing about it I'll get more and more questions, and I'd rather do other shit than answering them.

What kind of spin would a fermion (a hypothetical exotic one) need to be able to interact with both quarks and leptons? Is it possible for any form of fermion to do so?
Would a stable first-generation leptoquark qualify as what I speak of? Would it be able to interact with both nucleons and electrons?

What about a 3D anyon or plekton?
Plektons—if they exist—would already have an assigned role in nature which should be expressible with a Poincaré group. So once again, no.
Thank you for your answers so far. You have been invaluable to my works. Now to ask you a very radical, physics-defying question that I am unsure whether or not you would be interested in answering. If so, thank you, but if not, I understand the immaturity of the question.
How would the physics of a Green Lantern Ring work? What possible particle (real or hypothetical) would a Lantern energy construct consist of? Would it be a fermion, boson, or tachyon, or something else?
