Spin and the Quantum Atom (Understanding Quantum Mechanics: Part 5)

Quantum mechanics at the subatomic level is truly bizarre and paradoxical.  In earlier talks, we covered some of these behaviors: wave-particle duality, quantum entanglement, and quantum tunnelling.  But how does quantum mechanics explain the everyday world that we experience?  Come and learn about how atoms—the building blocks of matter—are governed by strange rules of quantum mechanics.
