Taking a 'particle' as a proton/ neutron, both of these have spin 1/2.
So do all leptons (electrons, neutrinos, etc).

What does it mean if a particle has a spin of 2?
It means it has five distinct spin states. The only particle I can think of off the top of my head with a spin of 2 is the (as yet not directly observed) graviton.
What is the spin of the neutron?
A beta particle is either an electron, or an anti-electron (positron). Both have a spin of 1/2.
What is meant by spin of the atomic particles as half and one?
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).
Nuclear physics is the field of physics?
Nuclear Physics is a field of physics, yes. It involves interactions between atomic nuclei. Nuclear fission, nuclear fusion, nuclear decay (though in some ways that is more particle physics).
What is a quantum state with zero spin in physics spelt S N L T?
singlet
What is a quantum number in the classification of elementary particles?
it is isospin - In physics, and specifically, particle physics, isospin (isotopic spin, isobaric spin) is a quantum number
What are fermion?
In particle physics, fermions are particles with a half-integer spin, such as protons and electrons.
What has the author Peter A Carruthers written?
Peter A. Carruthers has written: 'Spin and isospin in particle physics' -- subject(s): Isobaric spin, Nuclear spin
What branch of physics uses particle accelerator?
Particle Physics
What are the ratings and certificates for Particle Physics - 2011?
Particle Physics - 2011 is rated/received certificates of: UK:PG
What is a g40 and how does it apply to particle physics?
G40 is a supernova remnant. Particle physics is the study particles, radiation and matter. One would be able to study the properties of the G40 by applying the principles of particle physics

Subatomic particle that has the least mass?
In the atom this particle is the electron. Generally in the particle physics: photons, gluons, neutrinos.
