I am sure there are hadrons containing top quark(s), but they have not been observed. The things preventing the observation of such hadrons are:

  • one top quark by itself has roughly the mass of an entire tungsten atom, this means it takes an enormous amount of energy just to create just one top quark
  • the top quark is very unstable with a halflife of about 5E-25 seconds, this means that for all practical purposes all top quarks created will be gone within only about 25E-25 seconds so they are very unlikely to even have a chance to find other quarks to form hadrons with and if they did form a hadron it would decay rapidly

Is a quark a soundwave?

No, a quark is not a soundwave. A quark is an elementary particle which combines with other quarks to make hadrons, and the proton and neutron are examples of a hadron. Use the link below to the related question to discover what the quark is.


What is a quarks home called?

The quark, which is a fundamental particle, makes up a composite particle called a hadron. The hadron could be considered the "home" of the quark. There are two types of hadrons, and they are the baryon and the meson. The two best know hadrons are probably protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons, the "building blocks" of the atomic nucleus, are types of baryons.Atom

Does Top quark and Bottom quark make any stable particle in the universe?

Im afraid they dont, or to say it better the top quark does not make anything (yet). This is because of its very short lifetime (about 4.38*10^-25) which is too short to interact with a gluon and thus make a hadron.
