  2. Spin group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_group

    In mathematics the spin group, denoted Spin(n), [1] [2] is a Lie group whose underlying manifold is the double cover of the special orthogonal group SO(n) = SO(n, R), such that there exists a short exact sequence of Lie groups (when n ≠ 2)

  3. Pauli matrices - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pauli_matrices

    That is, the resulting spin operators for higher spin systems in three spatial dimensions, for arbitrarily large j, can be calculated using this spin operator and ladder operators. They can be found in Rotation group SO(3) § A note on Lie algebras. The analog formula to the above generalization of Euler's formula for Pauli matrices, the group ...

  4. 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 ...

  5. Yang–Mills theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yang–Mills_theory

    Yang–Mills theory is a quantum field theory for nuclear binding devised by Chen Ning Yang and Robert Mills in 1953, as well as a generic term for the class of similar theories. The Yang–Mills theory is a gauge theory based on a special unitary group SU( n ) , or more generally any compact Lie group .

  6. Spintronics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spintronics

    Spintronics emerged from discoveries in the 1980s concerning spin-dependent electron transport phenomena in solid-state devices. This includes the observation of spin-polarized electron injection from a ferromagnetic metal to a normal metal by Johnson and Silsbee (1985) [5] and the discovery of giant magnetoresistance independently by Albert Fert et al. [6] and Peter Grünberg et al. (1988). [7]

  7. Spin (propaganda) - Wikipedia

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

    In public relations and politics, spin is a form of propaganda, achieved through knowingly providing a biased interpretation of an event. While traditional public relations and advertising may manage their presentation of facts, "spin" often implies the use of disingenuous , deceptive , and manipulative tactics.

  8. Spin column-based nucleic acid purification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_column-based_nucleic...

    The different stages of the method are lyse, bind, wash, and elute. [1] [2] More specifically, this entails the lysis of target cells to release nucleic acids, selective binding of nucleic acid to a silica membrane, washing away particulates and inhibitors that are not bound to the silica membrane, and elution of the nucleic acid, with the end result being purified nucleic acid in an aqueous ...

  9. Proton spin crisis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton_spin_crisis

    Thus, the sum of the quarks' spin was expected to be equal to the proton's spin. Instead, the experiment found that the number of quarks with spin in the proton's spin direction was almost the same as the number of quarks whose spin was in the opposite direction. This is the proton spin crisis. Similar results have been obtained in later ...
