Do you have a reference I can read? My understanding is that there is
absolutely no evidence that a proton has ever been observed as being
formed from the binding of three quarks.

Your understanding is incorrect. As for a reference, suggest you
hightail it to the nearest library.

Oh, I suppose you meant a link where the only effort required on your
part was a mouse-click...

Actually, the proposed exercise was for your benefit. I have already
researched the evidence for quarks for years. There is absolutely no
evidence that quarks exist. The only thing that exists is a
theoretical model people imagine as describing the structure of various
particles. If you take the time, you will see this for yourself.
Here, I have provided some quick clicks so you wouldn't have to get off
your *** and go to the library:

Some physicists try to rationalize why they can't see quarks:
"Basically, you can't see an isolated quark because the color force
does not let them go, and the energy required to separate them produces
quark-antiquark pairs long before they are far enough apart to observe
separately."
http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/particles/quark.html#c6

And other just admit it right out:
"The arguments in the preceding section are based on the quark
hypothesis and we have to prove it experimentally. First, we bombarded
nucleons with a beam of high energy particles to see if they could be
decomposed into quarks. It so turned out, however, that quarks have
never been observed to date."

But the fact remains, nobody has ever seen a quark in the lab. And if
you can't see a quark, you can never see three quarks come together to
produce a proton or neutron.

I realize how easy it is to sit on your *** and just accept what your
are fed. But if you really take the time to research all the
literature on quarks, you will see that they don't exist in reality.
Quarks only exist on paper and in the minds of physicists. The
Universe, it would appear, has a very different understanding of atomic
structure than the scientists who are observing it.
