Lecture 2: spin

Lecture 2: spin
Lecture 2: spin
In this lecture, I discuss the nature of spin in elementary particles as a consequence of relativistic corrections to quantum mechanics. I summarise the arguments introduced by Paul Dirac to derive the electron spin Hamiltonian and its eigenstates and eigenvalues. I then discuss the possible values of the spin quantum number of elementary particles and atomic nuclei.

Abstract

In this lecture, I discuss the nature of spin in elementary particles as a consequence of relativistic corrections to quantum mechanics. I summarise the arguments introduced by Paul Dirac to derive the electron spin Hamiltonian and its eigenstates and eigenvalues. I then discuss the possible values of the spin quantum number of elementary particles and atomic nuclei.
