    The only thing to keep in mind is that although particles are dimensionless (as far as we know), the do not exist without context. Spin relates to how a particle is linked to the rest of the world.

    One way of seeing it is that spin can be represented by a “rotational polarisation” of the surrounding cloud of virtual particles.
