Someone brought this to my attention in another thread
Do solitary quarks exist?

I thought the whole point was that we dont have strong enough particle accelerators to split them up

does anyone know which arguement is true?

Syllabus answer:

No.

Proper answer:

Currently no solitary quark has ever been found although there are good theoretical reasons for believing they exist which I won't go in to here.
