    I Standard Model SU(2) singlets and doublets

    I know that for SU(2), weak interaction, in the standard model the right handed leptons are singlets, (and right handed neutrinos don't exist). For right handed quarks are they singlets or doublets in the standard model. So is it (u d)R or is it just u(R) and d(R)
