| 21. | But what is the meaning of half-integer spin ? talk ) 15 : 09, 6 January 2014 ( UTC)
|
| 22. | According to the spin-statistics theorem in any reasonable spin are bosons, while particles with half-integer spin are fermions.
|
| 23. | In general, such particles are called gauge bosons, where the term " boson " refers to a particle with integer spin.
|
| 24. | The spin statistics theorem dictates that all particles with integer spin are bosons whereas all particles with half-integer spin are fermions.
|
| 25. | The spin statistics theorem dictates that all particles with integer spin are bosons whereas all particles with half-integer spin are fermions.
|
| 26. | Thus bosonic fields are one of the two theoretically possible types of quantum field, namely those corresponding to particles with integer spin.
|
| 27. | In the case of integer spins the second term of the Hamiltonian results in the splitting of the otherwise degenerate ground state doublet.
|
| 28. | Fermions carry half-integer spin values, and by the Pauli exclusion principle, identical fermions cannot occupy a single position in spacetime.
|
| 29. | Bosons carry integer spin values, and are characterized by the ability to have any number of identical bosons occupy a single point in space.
|
| 30. | The Spin-statistics theorem shows that Fermions have half-integer spins . talk ) 16 : 06, 21 December 2008 ( UTC)
