Spin is the measure of the angle of the particle. The angle determines whether the particle is a scalar or a vector. Spin zero indicates a positive scalar; Spin 1/2 is pi/2 angle and indicates a positive vector; spin 1 is pi degrees and indicates a negative scalar; spin 3/2 indicates a negative vector.

Physics Particles are Quaternions containing a scalar and vector parts, the unit quaternion is described as:

cos(Angle) + v sin(Angle).

Quantities in Physics are in general Quaternion, e.g. Gravitatioanl Energy W=-mu/r + cP.

Bosons and Fermions represent pure scalars and Vectors with angle being multiples of pi or spin. spin is symbolic of 180 degrees spin zero is zero degrees. spin 1/2 is 90 degrees etc. When angles are not multiples of pi/2 the quantity is a Quaternion and contains a scalar (Boson) and Vector (Fermion).

What is spin statistic theorm?

This theorem of quantum physics says something about integer-spin particles and half-integer spin particles. For more information see the article I've associated with this answer.


Which sub- atomic particles are classified by their flavor colour spin charm and strangeness?

Those are the 'quarks'.


What are fermion?

In particle physics, fermions are particles with a half-integer spin, such as protons and electrons.


What distinguish protons-neutrons-electrons?

The characteristics of sub-atomic particles are charge, mass, and spin. Neutrons are the heaviest, electrons are the lightest (of those 3 particle types), elecrons are negatively charged, neutrons are uncharged, and protons are postively charged. Spin is sometimes used to distinguish between some kinds of particles, but not in this case.


What is meant by the orbit of an electron?

The path of an electron as it orbits the nucleus. If you mean the orbital, then that is the shell, or level that an electron is on. If you mean the spin, then that's a quality that subatomic particles have (nothing to do with spinning, just a name). An electron's spin is 1/2.


Is Charge a wave?

No. "Charge" is a quantity possessed by some sub-atomic particles, just like mass, charm, strangeness, spin, etc. Some particles have it, some don't. Sometimes charge is perfectly stationary. In that case, it clearly has no wave features to it whatsoever.


What is Spin motion of electrons?

Spin is normally the fact that something spins on its axis. Elementary particles, such as electrons, have an inherent property called "spin". It is some property they have, but they can't really be considered to spin in a classical sense, since they are usually believed to be point-particles. Confusingly, it DOES carry angular momentum, so it does have some of the properties of classical spin. It's best to think of this type of spin as an "intrinsic property of certain particles".

What are the features of the subatomic particles?

Subatomic particles have mass, dimensions, spin, sometimes have an electrical charge.


How do the subatomic particles differ from one another?

Protons and neutrons are situated in the nucleus; electrons orbit this atomic nucleus.


What does the symbol F- is?

The symbol F- is a symbol used to denote a particular type of fermion which is a particle that has an odd half-integer spin. F- particles have the following characteristics: They are spin 1/2 particles They have an electric charge of -1 They are fermions They obey the Pauli exclusion principle They are their own anti-particlesF- particles are important in particle physics and can be found in a variety of places including dark matter and quark-gluon plasmas.


Is there any connection between the wave length and spin of a photon?

No, the spin of different particles is a constant in each case; for example the spin of a photon is always 1.
