- Hello. I am having a little of trouble to understand how do we go from one equation involving spinors, to the "same equations in ket language".
- Relevant Equations
- .
"##\sigma . n X = 1*X##"
to
"##S. n| S. n; +\rangle = \frac{h}{4\pi}| S .n; +\rangle ##"
X is a spinorto
"##S. n| S. n; +\rangle = \frac{h}{4\pi}| S .n; +\rangle ##"
n is any unitary vector
sigma are the pauli matrices ##(\sigma 0, \sigma x,\sigma y,\sigma z)##
S is the spin vector.
It was claimed that both equations are equivalent, but i couldn't see why.
