Understanding the Quantum World

Quantum Angular Momentum and Electron Spin (1x13)

Data emisji: Mar 28, 2019

Continue your investigation of the counterintuitive quantum world by contrasting angular momentum for planets and other classical objects with analogous phenomena in quantum particles. Cover the celebrated Stern?Gerlach experiment, which in the 1920s showed that spin is quantized for atoms and can only take on a very limited number of discrete values.
