Best Answer

A object smaller than a quark has been found but not directly. This object is the singularity at the centre of every black hole. This is a place where all the laws of physics, mathematics or anything else break down and are cast aside. Our universe in theory started with a singularity.

It is the kind of place where 2+2=5.

It is an object that is infinitely small and infinitely dense which is why in 2008 CERN launched two quarks at the speed of light to hit each other and reveal the singularity as previous particles had been found inside each other, the experiment failed the particles obey the laws of quantum mechanics only to well meaning it is nearly impossible to get them to be seen never mind crash.

What is the smallest part of an isotope?

The smallest particle that I am aware of is the quark. The quark is the basic building block of hadrons. There are two types of hadrons: baryons (three quarks) and mesons (one quark, one antiquark). Protons and the neutrons are stable baryons. There are also leptons, a family of elementary particles that include electrons, muons, tauons, and neutrinos. Neutrinos were originally believed to have zero mass, but they have been found to have a very tiny mass, smaller than any subatomic particle. Calling someone a 'hadron head' would be considered an insult among physicists.

What is the evidence for quarks?

Every particle that should exist if quarks are real has been found. No particle that should not exist if quarks are real has ever been found. The results of in-elastic scattering between hadrons fits perfectly with quark. The hypothesis of charm quarks predicted experimental results that were almost perfectly replicated with the discovery of the psi-particle. In other words, the quark hypothesis matches observation perfectly. That's about as strong of evidence as can exist.

What are the components of a meson?

A meson is made of quarks - specifically a quark-antiquark pair. Some are called pions and kaons. They are all short lived particles that have been identified from high energy collisions. See Wikipedia for more detail.

No, the quark is not both fact and fiction. It is fact. The six quarks have all been observed in the results of particle accelerator experiments (collisions) in high energy physics laboratories.
