	Spin quantum number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In atomic physics, the spin quantum number is a quantum number that parametrizes the intrinsic angular momentum (or spin angular momentum, or simply spin) of a given particle.
		The spin quantum number is the fourth of a set of quantum numbers which describe the unique quantum state of an electron and is designated by the letter s.
		There needed to be a fourth quantum number that could properly predict spectra that matched the complexity found in nature so that this new quantum number had to behave as if it were also derived from the algebra of angular momentum vectors.

	Quantum mechanics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Quantum mechanics is a fundamental branch of theoretical physics that supersedes classical mechanics at the atomic and subatomic levels.
		Quantum mechanics is a more fundamental theory than Newtonian mechanics and classical electromagnetism, in the sense that it provides accurate and precise descriptions for many phenomena that these "classical" theories simply cannot explain on the atomic and subatomic level.
		In the formalism of quantum mechanics, the state of a system at a given time is described by a complex number wave functions (sometimes referred to as orbitals in the case of atomic electrons), and more generally, elements of a complex vector space.

	Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Angular momentum (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		In physics the angular momentum of an object with respect to a reference point is a measure for the extent to which, and the direction in which, the object rotates about the reference point.
		Angular momentum can also be calculated by multiplying the square of the displacement 'r',the mass of the particle and the angular velocity.
		Under this formalism, angular momentum is the 2-form Noether charge associated with rotational invariance (As a result, angular momentum isn't conserved for general curved spacetimes, unless it happens to be asymptotically rotationally invariant).
