... whose specific form we will not need, but for S = 1/2 it is ~σ /2. Such a system has 2S + 1 degenerate states for ~h = 0, which is 2 for S = 1/2. Initially, the system is prepared in a state having a definite projection of the spin on the field, |N i, where N measures the component of the spin along ...

the squared modulus of the wave function is the probability density
... First, let’s shortly recapitulate what we told about probability density. Recently, we talked about the probability of finding a particle in the x region between x and x + dx in a 1-D quantum well. This probability Is related to the particle-in-the-well wavefunction as: ...

Quantum Field Theory
... For the reasons explained above we need to extend our single particle Hilbert space. We introduce a multi-particle Hilbert space which is called a Fock space. It consists of states labelled by the momenta (and later also spins, as well as any other quantum numbers) of an arbitrary number of particle ...
