    Electron Spin – Physics Notes – For W.B.C.S. Examination.

    ইলেক্ট্রন স্পিন – পদার্থ বিজ্ঞান নোট – WBCS পরীক্ষা।

    The electron spin is one of the three inherent properties of the electrons; the others are mass and charge of the electron. The electron spin is described as the spinning of the electron around its axis.Continue Reading Electron Spin – Physics Notes – For W.B.C.S. Examination.

    It is articulated as: S=s(s+1)h−−−−−−−−√

    Where,

    • s is equivalent to a quantized spin vector
    • The spin vector is articulated as ||s||
    • The spin quantum number (s) is associated with the spin angular momentum and h is the Plancks constant.

    The spin quantum number can be articulated as: S=n2

    Any non-negative integer can be n.
    The permitted values of the spins are 0, 1/2, 1, 3/2, 2, etc.
    The intrinsic angular momentum of Electron is signified by quantum number 1/2
    The total angular momentum s is articulated by:

    s=n(n+1)h−−−−−−−−√
    s=12(12+1)h−−−−−−−−−√

    S=34h¯−−−√

    Where,
    the reduced Planck’s constant is h¯
    h¯ = h/2π.

    Electron Spin Theory

    The electron spin theory describes the electron as a quantum particle instead of the simple sphere as in the classical theory.

    The theory says that the electron spin direction and its influence on the certain properties like magnetic properties of the atom.

    The electron can spin in two directions:

    1. Spin up
    2. Spin down

    The spin up and spin down direction are corresponding to the spinning in the +z or –z direction. These spins (spin up and spin down) are the particles which have spin s equal to 1/2, i.e for electrons.

    In the quantum theory, the electron is thought of as the minute magnetic bar and its spin points the north pole of the minute bar. If two proximate electrons have a similar spin direction, the magnetic field formed by them strengthens each other and therefore a strong magnetic field is gained.If the proximate electrons have an opposite spin direction, the magnetic field formed by them cancels each other and no magnetic field is existent.

    If the proximate electrons have an opposite spin direction, the magnetic field formed by them cancels each other and no magnetic field is existent.
