particle physics - status of +4/3 scalar as explanation of $tbar t$ asymmetry


One of the early proposals for the Tevatron asymmetry on $t \bar t$ was a "fundamental diquark" with a charge (and hypercharge) +4/3, either in a triplet or a sextet colour. I am interested on the current status of this proposal:


Generically, has some particular model of been favoured in ulterior research?



For starters, you can see the short report in JHEP 1109:097,2011, at the end of section 2, points 5 and 6. I only become aware of the survival of this hypothesis after seeing http://arxiv.org/abs/1111.0477 last week.

Understanding Stagnation point in pitot fluid

What is stagnation point in fluid mechanics. At the open end of the pitot tube the velocity of the fluid becomes zero.But that should result...
