Realistic calculations of photoluminescence spectra for a 20 nm quantum well at a filling factorν=1/3 are presented. The new states formed from charged excitons (trions) by correlation with the surrounding electrons are identified. These "quasiexcitons" differ from usual excitons and trions by having fractionally charged constituents. Their binding energies and emission intensities depend on the involved trion, leading to discontinuity in photoluminescence.
