A critique of recent semi-classical spin-half quantum plasma theories
... and the tiny spin-dependent correction to the “orbital energy” contributed by the high n term is clearly an insignificant effect. Any semi-classical approach must require n ≫ 1 and thus cannot possibly account for the spin quantum number σ or effects arising from it. Thus, the quantum [Pauli equatio ...
