Quantum physics is an incredibly strange and fantastic world, but perhaps its strangest property is a type of angular momentum called spin. Because even though it's been nearly 100 years since its discovery, we still don't know exactly what this property is.

So, in this video today, we've examined how spin angular momentum was discovered and tried to understand what it is. From the Zeeman effect to the Stern-Gerlach experiment, from the Bohr atomic model to Pauli's work, you'll find a wealth of fascinating topics in this video.
