Abstract

We propose a tomographic reconstruction scheme for spin states. The experimental setup, which is a modification of the Stern-Gerlach scheme, can be easily performed with currently available technology. The method is generalized to multi-particle states, analyzing the spin 1/2 case for indistinguishable particles. Some Monte Carlo numerical simulations are given to illustrate the technique.
