## TL;DR

This paper proposes a unified gauge and family model using spinors, combining orbifold techniques with traditional ideas to address chirality issues, resulting in three chiral families and promising experimental implications.

## Contribution

It introduces a novel model that unifies gauge and family symmetries with spinors, overcoming chirality challenges through an orbifold approach.

## Key findings

- Three chiral families are realized in the model.
- The model achieves acceptable gauge coupling unification.
- Potential experimental signatures are identified.

## Abstract

Comprehensive - that is, gauge and family - unification using spinors has many attractive features, but it has been challenged to explain chirality. Here, by combining an orbifold construction with more traditional ideas, we address that difficulty. Our candidate model features three chiral families and leads to an acceptable result for quantitative unification of couplings. A potential target for accelerator and astronomical searches emerges.
