Spin-0 Particles: Help Understanding Test Process

[eri139]

Homework Statement

A professor has a theory that after a nuclear process, the system ejects a new spin-0 particle. You are asked to propose an experiment to assess the theory. How would you go about this?

Relevant Equations

I'm not sure if there are any equations necessary for this.

I actually have 0 clue how to approach this. I'm thinking this might have to do something with the Stern-Gerlach experiment, but I don't know how that would help me test a spin-0 particle. If anyone could please help me with this, that would be great!

If you want to study spin in decays, look at the spin of all other particles and look at angular distributions if needed. There are useful conservation laws.
