24. The difference between a neutron and a photon from a spin (polarization) point of view is as follows. A neutron is a massive particle whose spin 1/2 is not coupled to the propagation direction of the neutron beam; contrarily, a photon is a zero-mass particle whose paraxial spin 1/2 is either parallel or antiparallel with the propagation direction of the photon beam.
