How was Pauli exclusion principle derived ?
Experimental ? From some other physical formula ? Which ?
From some other principle ?

Pauli sought to explain a previously purely empirical phenomenon in atomic structure... but he was doing this against a background of studying a range of related phenomena.

... this is one where the observations came first. It wasn't derived so much as deduced.
