The Stern-Gerlach experiment is one of the most important results in physics history. Shockingly, the paper had never been translated into english until today's guest, Prof. Martin Bauer set himself to the task. We'll discuss the experiment, as well as Martin's research. Bring your questions for this renowned science popularizer and scientist!

Read the paper: The Stern-Gerlach Experiment, Translation of: "Der experimentelle Nachweis der Richtungsquantelung im Magnetfeld" by Martin Bauer https://arxiv.org/abs/2301.11343

The following is a translation of the paper by Walther Gerlach and Otto Stern that reported the first evidence for the quantization of atoms in a magnetic field. The atoms have quantum states corresponding to a limited number of possible angles between the directions of the angular momenta of the atoms and the magnetic field, also called space quantization. The wording and layout have been chosen to be as close to the original as possible. For context we recommend the recent review.
