I want to know why or why not subatomic particles have surface shapes. 
Specifically, would the surface shape of quarks have anything to do with their 
properties and combination possibilities. And if subatomic particals do not 
have a surface, then at what scale do the surfaces of objects disappear? A 
particle is a bundle of energy and bundles usually have a surface.
