I'm trying to figure out the spin state of a neutron. Specifically, I want to know if it's spinning up or down. Can anyone help me understand this?

A proton is composed of two particles known as Up quarks.

When the charges of the Up quarks and the Down Quark are combined, the result is a total positive charge of 1.

On the other hand, a neutron is constructed from two Down quarks.

Each of these Up quarks carries a charge of 2/3 positive.

Additionally, a proton contains one Down Quark.
