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
