Yes, they can. In fact, they're absolutely necessary these days due to the energies needed to create them. There are two main labs in the world that focus on doing this. The first is the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research in Darmstadt, Germany. The second is Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in Berkeley, California.

How are particle accelerators used to synthesize elements?
What essentially happens is two nuclei of two different (or the same) elements are smashed together; sometimes (although rarely) parts of the nuclei will stick together instead of getting obliterated or shot out. It is through this process that particle accelerators are used to create elements; however, it is worth noting that these elements are unstable due to the nucleus's atomic radius being to large; it will be greater than the range of the residual strong force.
Is it possible to create nuclear fusion in a particle accelerator?
Yes, it is possible (beam target fusion).

Why was it so difficult for scientist to find the 6 quark?
very interesting question, we don't know why. however there are several lines of evidence from studying other particles in the standard model that suggest that there cannot be more than 6 quarks.
What are the basic elements that make up a slide show presentation?
There are the slides themselves. On the slides you will have text and/or graphics. You will have basic transitions and animations. You may have other elements, such as music and video. It will depend on the presentation you are trying to create.
