Continuous spin particles are theoretical constructs in quantum field theory that extend the concept of spin beyond the usual discrete values found in standard quantum mechanics. In conventional quantum mechanics, spin is quantized and can take specific values, such as \(0, \frac{1}{2}, 1, \) etc. However, continuous spin particles are characterized by having an infinite number of spin states that can take any value along a continuous spectrum.
