	Spin (physics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Photons are spin-one particles, and the hypothetical graviton is a spin-two particle.
		Spin was first discovered in the context of the emission spectrum of alkali metals.
		Magnetic material may be modelled by a system of spins located at positions in a lattice, where the interaction of neighboring spins contributes to the total energy of the system and the states of the spins change according to some non-deterministic (probabilistic) rule (the dynamics of the system).

		Spin is an intrinsic angular momentum associated with quantum mechanical particles.
		Unlike classical "spinning" objects, which derive their angular momentum from the rotation of their constituent parts, spin angular momentum is not associated with any rotating internal masses.
		Also, unlike classical mechanical spinning, the spin is not described by a vector, but by a two-component object (for spin-1/2 particles): there is an observable difference in how it transforms under coordinate rotations.

	Spin (public relations) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In public relations, spin is a usually pejorative term signifying a heavily biased portrayal in one's own favor of an event or situation.
		Because of the frequent association between "spin" and press conferences (especially government press conferences), the room in which these take place is sometimes described as a spin room.
		"Spin" was originally an acronym, "Significant Progress In the News," used by public relations specialists in the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) in the mid-1980s.

	Spin Networks
		Spin networks are states of quantum geometry in a theory of quantum gravity, discovered by Lee Smolin and Carlo Rovelli, which is the conceptual ancestor of the imaginary physics of Schild's Ladder.
		If a quantum-mechanical particle starting out in a certain spin state (characterised by a total spin, j, and a component in the direction of the z-axis, m) is carried along a path through space, parallel transport will generally change the particle's spin state; this is the quantum-mechanical equivalent of the rotation of a classical vector.
		The total spins on the edges aren't enough to fully describe a particle's spin state, though; there is still freedom to choose different values for m, the components of spin along the z-axis.

	Electron spin
		The electron spin magnetic moment is important in the spin-orbit interaction which splits atomic energy levels and gives rise to fine structure in the spectra of atoms.
		The electron spin magnetic moment is also a factor in the interaction of atoms with external magnetic fields (Zeeman effect).
		The term "electron spin" is not to be taken literally in the classical sense as a description of the origin of the magnetic moment described above.

	Left-arm orthodox spin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the sport of cricket, left-arm orthodox spin is the equivalent of off spin bowling, but bowled with the left hand.
		As a result, the ball spins away from a right-handed batsman, like leg spin.
		Left arm spin is one of the more challenging arts of cricket because it requires long hours of practice to get the right line.

	Spin - Formal Verification
		Spin is a popular open-source software tool, used by thousands of people worldwide, that can be used for the formal verification of distributed software systems.
		Spin works on-the-fly, which means that it avoids the need to preconstruct a global state graph, or Kripke structure, as a prerequisite for the verification of system properties.
		Spin can be used as a full LTL model checking system, supporting all correctness requirements expressible in linear time temporal logic, but it can also be used as an efficient on-the-fly verifier for more basic safety and liveness properties.

	Spin
		Second, spin is facilitated by the forum provided by the media; in particular, spin as a political strategy has benefited from the proliferation of cable television and specifically the rise of political talk shows, which offers a stage for the practitioners of spin.
		Spin can be proactive or reactive, can originate with a political actor or be carried out through surrogates, and can be a campaigning or governing activity (to the extent that the one set of political activities can be meaningfully extruded from the other).
		Offensive spin typically involves attempting to change the subject, either by questioning the credibility of persons attacking, or by attacking the media in an attempt to raise the perceived stakes of pursuing a line of questioning a politician clearly indicates is out of bounds.

	Spin and Polarization
		The spin of a particle is quantized, so when we make a measurement at any specific angle we get only one of the two results UP or DOWN.
		Photons too have quantum spin (they are spin-1 particles), but since photons travel at the speed c, the "spin axis" of a photon is always parallel to its direction of motion, pointing either forward or backward.
		The photon's spin axis is always parallel to the direction of travel, whereas the polarization axis of a wave of light is perpendicular to the direction of travel.

		Formed in New York in 1991, the Spin Doctors began as Trucking Company in 1989 with Chris Barron (singer/songwriter), Eric Schenkman and John Popper, high school friends from Princeton, N.J. Popper left to form Blues Traveler, so Aaron Comess, New School (a school associated with Parsons) classmate joined the band.
		Although the band was only one of many bands with their sound/style (jam-oriented blues), only the Spin Doctors made it big.
		According to Spin Doctors drummer Aaron Comess, Barron's affliction began during a string of shows in late May. "Chris woke up on a Monday morning and had no voice," he said.

	Spin - Version 4.2 - April 2005
		Spin is distributed in source form to encourage research in formal verification, and to help a support friendly and open exchange of algorithms, ideas, and tools.
		To run Spin, even from the precompiled version, you need a working C-compiler and a C-preprocessor, because Spin generates its model checking software as C-source files that require compilation before a verification can be performed.
		To avoid the name clash, you either have to edit the Spin source code to give it the full path name of the 'real' cpp.exe and recompile, or use Spin with the command-line option -Pxxxx where xxxx is the path for cpp.exe.

	Scientists Obtain Evidence Earth's Spin Twists Space-Time Around It
		He said a spinning flywheel would impart a twist to space and time that would affect a nearby gyroscope.
		If a frictionless gyro is placed near the flywheel, its axis of spin, the imaginary line around which the gyro revolves, will be dragged in the direction of the flywheel's rotation.
		The flywheel's impact would be infinitesimal and hard to measure because it is not a massive object, so scientists at the University of Maryland and the University of Lecce in Italy devised a way to measure the rotating impact of something much bigger, Earth, on two orbiting satellites six-thousand kilometers high.

		A gyroscope is a spinning object, usually a wheel, mounted in a frame that can swivel freely.
		The wheel's spin produces inertia that keeps the wheel's spin axis pointed in a fixed direction, so gyroscopes have long served as stable references for compasses and navigation systems.
		Known as geodetic precession, this effect is expected to shift the gyroscopes' spin axes by more than 150 times as much as frame dragging does.
