Quantum Spin and Measurement
How can one quantum object give only two spin results when a direction can point countless ways? The puzzle begins with a crucial distinction: quantum spin is not an electron physically rotating like a tiny ball. It is an intrinsic form of angular momentum, a fundamental property built into a particle, and its magnetic behaviour lets experiments reveal information about it.
