Nonlinear Semi-Classical 3D Quantum Spin

Quantum Physics 2018-10-31 v1

Abstract

In an effort to provide an alternative method to represent a quantum spin, a precise 3D nonlinear dynamics method is used. A two-sided torque function is created to mimic the unique behavior of the quantum spin. A full 3D representation of the magnetic field of a Stern-Gerlach device was used as in the original experiment. Furthermore, the temporarily driven nonlinear damped model exhibits chaos, but struggles to be consistent through azimuthal angles in reproducing the quantum spin statistics.
