A Nonrelativistic Wave Equation with Spin

  • Chapter
Quantum Mechanics

Abstract

In this chapter we introduce a new method of deducing — in a systematic, theoretical manner — the Pauli equation for the electron with the correct g factor. In contrast to earlier derivations, we do not refer to empirical facts, but develop the new theoretical concept of the linearization of the wave equation.
