I am new to this forum.
Well anyway that is not important.
My question
Spin angular momentum[tex]=\fract{h}{2 \ pi}\sqrt{s(s+1)}[/tex] when s is [tex]\fract{-1}{2}[/tex] then isn't the spin angular momentum complex.

What is 's' in your equation? Can it have a negative value? Review the definition of terms for this equation.
