I want to do a Kaluza Klein exercise but I am afraid I am too lazy to finish any work if not under pressure. So I was thinking, perhaps it could be done here, collaboratively, and signed by all collaborators (the ones wishing/willing to sign; others can be just acknowledged or even remain anonymous )
The topic is Kaluza Klein in D=9. The immediate goal, to derive a SU(3)xU(1) non chiral theory in four dimensions. The secondary goal, see if the matter content can be related to D=9 supergravity, whose Rarita-Schwinger fermion has 48 degrees of freedom (half of the Standard Model content)
Some references on D=9 sugra:
