Can the Electric Charges of Elementary Particles Change with Time?

Abstract

We present the limits on possible time variation of the electric charges of quarks and leptons at the time of primordial nucleosynthesis within a model with dequantized electric charges which allows for the case of charged neutrino and neutron.
