Quarks are currently the smallest.
But they may be made up of spacial cortices that are much smaller.

Electrons are fundamental particles, point-like with no measurable size. Protons and neutrons are not fundamental particles. They are made of quarks, which are, but the spacing between the quarks will give the protons and neutrons a measurable effective size.

Did u desire us to compliment or inform you the smallest unit of an component. besides between them the electron is the smallest. The atom is made up of proton neutron and electron. Proton and neutron have comparable mass whilst electron has a million/1823 approx the mass of the proton that's extremely small. regardless of the undeniable fact that scientist those days say even those are not the smallest unit. they say all remember are made up of quarks and Leptons. Its fortunate that electron is without doubt one among the leptons. --------------------------------------... All remember------------------------- standard particle ------------------------------ non-standard particle (Hadron) (i)Leptons (electron,...) ---------------------------- (i)Baryons (protons,neutron) (ii)substitute particle(gluons,..) ------------------ (ii) Mesons (Pions,....) maximum of those at the instant are not good. subsequently the 1st technology debris (i.e. up and down quarks, electron and electron-neutrino) make ordinary remember.

maybe the smallness continues like bigness continues. there is stars and galaxies and galaxies galaxies and continues to infinity. the universe is unlimited in both ways possibly. like how big is universe we usually say infinity but what is infinity can infinity actually exist? whats the farthest part of this universe i wonder what infinity is all about. how can universe be infinityly big so interesting i want to know.

something called quarks(go to Wikipedia)
