Hello. I am in class eleventh. I met a class 12th guy telling me that he knew a theoretical proof for showing that the values of spin quantum number are +1/2 and -1/2.
If anyone else knows the proof, please tell me...I'm desperate to know..
Any help would be appreciated.

The spin of a particle can be \pm \frac{n}{2} where n is an integer. This is a long algebraic/physical proof. Does he really know what he is talking about?

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. Towards the end of the first lecture for the Qiskit Global Summer School 2025, Foundations of Quantum Mechanics, Olivia Lanes (Global Lead, Content and Education IBM) stated...

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
