From: JeffRelf.F-M.FM on 24 Apr 2010 15:04 What kind of “spin” are you ( treBert ) putting on the cue ball ? left, right, up or down ? WikiPedia says: “ The 'spin direction' ( also called 'spin' for short ) of a particle is an important intrinsic degree of freedom. ” ― http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_%28physics%29 “ In mathematical terms, the degrees of freedom are the dimensions of a phase space. ” ― http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degrees_of_freedom_%28physics_and_chemistry%29 In Quantum Mechanics, spin·2 isn't faster than spin·1. spin·2 has 4 degrees of freedom; spin·1/2 has 1 degree of freedom. In Classical Physics, Quantum Mechanical “spin” is “polarization”. |
