Pauli Spin
Pauli Spin refers to a quantum property of particles, particularly electrons, that describes their intrinsic angular momentum. It is a fundamental aspect of quantum mechanics, where particles can have a spin of either +1/2 or -1/2. This property is crucial for understanding the behavior of particles in magnetic fields and their arrangement in atoms.
The concept is named after Wolfgang Pauli, who formulated the Pauli Exclusion Principle. This principle states that no two fermions, such as electrons, can occupy the same quantum state simultaneously. As a result, Pauli Spin plays a vital role in determining the structure of matter and the behavior of materials.
