Spin (physics) - Wikipedia
WEBElectron spin plays an important role in magnetism, with applications for instance in computer memories. The manipulation of nuclear spin by radio-frequency waves (nuclear magnetic resonance) is important in chemical spectroscopy and medical imaging.

WEBDec 24, 2022 · The hyperfine structure of the hydrogen spectrum is explained by the interaction between the magnetic moment of the proton and the magnetic moment of the electron, an interaction known as spin-spin coupling.
What is Electron Spin? - Electron Spin Theory & Formulas - BYJU'S
WEBThe electron spin is one of the three inherent properties of the electrons; the others are the mass and charge of the electron. The electron spin is described as the electron spinning around its axis. It is articulated as: \ (\begin {array} {l}\left \| S \right \| = \sqrt {s (s+1)h}\end {array} \) Where, s is equivalent to a quantized spin vector.

Spin quantum number - Wikipedia
WEBIn physics and chemistry, the spin quantum number is a quantum number (designated s) that describes the intrinsic angular momentum (or spin angular momentum, or simply spin) of an electron or other particle. It has the same value for all particles of the same type, such as s = 1 2 for all electrons.
