  2. Spin (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_(physics)

    The conventional definition of the spin quantum number is s = ⁠ n / 2 ⁠, where n can be any non-negative integer. Hence the allowed values of s are 0, ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠, 1, ⁠ 3 / 2 ⁠, 2, etc. The value of s for an elementary particle depends only on the type of particle and cannot be altered in any known way (in contrast to the spin ...

  3. Mathematical formulation of the Standard Model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_formulation...

    Standard Model of Particle Physics. The diagram shows the elementary particles of the Standard Model (the Higgs boson, the three generations of quarks and leptons, and the gauge bosons), including their names, masses, spins, charges, chiralities, and interactions with the strong, weak and electromagnetic forces.

  4. Spin quantum number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_quantum_number

    The phrase spin quantum number refers to quantized spin angular momentum. The symbol s is used for the spin quantum number, and m s is described as the spin magnetic quantum number [3] or as the z-component of spin s z. [4] Both the total spin and the z-component of spin are quantized, leading to two quantum numbers spin and spin magnet quantum ...

  5. Spin model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_model

    A spin model is a mathematical model used in physics primarily to explain magnetism. Spin models may either be classical or quantum mechanical in nature. Spin models have been studied in quantum field theory as examples of integrable models. Spin models are also used in quantum information theory and computability theory in theoretical computer ...
