Q: What are top quarks?
A: Top quarks or truth quarks are the heaviest known elementary particles that cannot be divided.
Q: Are quarks elementary particles?
A: Yes, all quarks are elementary particles.
Q: What is the spin of quarks?
A: Quarks are fermions, which means that no two of them can exist in the same place at the same time, and they have a spin of 1/2.
Q: What fundamental forces do top quarks interact with?
A: Top quarks interact with all four of the fundamental forces, which are gravity, electromagnetism, strong force, and weak force.
Q: What do top quarks usually decay into?
A: Almost all of the time, top quarks will decay into a bottom quark and a W boson, although it can sometimes decay into a strange quark.
Q: How heavy is one top quark?
A: One top quark weighs about as much as one atom of tungsten.
Q: How long are top quarks believed to exist?
A: Unfortunately, top quarks are believed to be able to exist for only 5x10–25 seconds.
