Stern-Gerlach Experiment and spin quantum number : Revealing Electron Spin
The Stern-Gerlach experiment, which took place in 1922, was the most important proof that electrons have spin and that they have a spin quantum number. A stream of silver atoms was sent through an experiment using a magnetic field...
