Hi Jak; We need to be aware that spin like all other physics terms are based on the measure of a phenomena. The literal interpretation of spin is “angular momentum” but the quantum spin refers to the state of a particles intrinsic parity, polarization, or some other such term. The quark structure of the protons and neutrons are interpretations of data resulting from accelerator experiments; we only know the status of the pieces after they collide, not while they are part of the particle. Having said that now let’s make another interpretation of the pieces. The spin (angular momentum) of a particle produces what is called a magnetic moment so magnetism is one of the measured properties; the other is charge or electrical property. The electrical property is analogous to your weather model of “H” and “L”; the air density of the “L” is denser than the air density of the “H” and thus producing a deferential in air density that is analogous to the voltage or electrical potential between particles with a property of charge. This would indicate that a negatively charged particle has a low spatial density whereas a positively charge particle has a high spatial density. This indicates that the negative quark is actually a low density shell structured particle (“H”) that confines the positive quarks (“L”) within it. This analogy can apply to all real particle phenomena but must be analogous to the peaks and troths of waves for all boson / photon particles. I hope this gives you a better visualization of the microscopic world. David |
