... mutually inconsistent – knowledge of one invalidates knowledge of the other. For example, if you measure the x spin of a particle, then measure the y spin, then measure the x spin again, you may get a different answer Position and momentum are incompatible observables – hence, the Heisenberg uncerta ...

Two-particle systems
... mechanics, you simply can't say which electron is which as you can not put any labels on them to tell them apart. There are two possible ways to deal with indistinguishable particles, i.e. to construct two-particle wave function that is non committal to which particle is in which state: ...

... In the Bohr model, this quantization may pictorially be linked to the requirement that the rotating particle must form a standing matter wave: Moreover, as the Stern-Gerlach effect shows (and as the Dirac equation describes), particles may carry spin angular momentum s, quantized to s s(s 1) , ...

Identical Particles
... The results that we have just obtained for the independent particle approximation to the helium atom illustrate a more general result, related to the Spin-Statistics Theorem and known as the Pauli Exclusion Principle which states No two identical fermions can be in the same quantum state For example ...

The Quantum Mechanics of MRI
... • Pauli’s exclusion principle ensures that many shells are filled. • Nuclei with uneven (even) atomic number have half-integer (integer) spin • Nuclei with even atomic and mass numbers have zero spin. • Unpaired neutrons/protons provide the spin for MRI. ...

QUANTUM TUNNELING AND SPIN by Robert J

Coherent control of a single nuclear spin with an electric field
... with those electrons. In recent experiments at very low temperature (30 mK), we were able to show that the terbium’s nuclear spin can be manipulated purely by an oscillating electric field (the microwave field represented in Fig. 1). This is remarkable because the magnetic dipole associated with the ...
