Abstract
Since the early days of quantum mechanics hydrogen, as the simplest of all atoms, has been studied or used to investigate new physics. In parallel, this knowledge leads to different applications, e.g. a spin filter to separate metastable hydrogen atoms in single hyperfine substates with electron spin m_s=1/2. Subsequently, this work provides the necessary theory as well as experimental conditions to build a new generation of spin filter which permits the separation of all four individual metastable hydrogen hyperfine states as well as for its isotopes in a corresponding beam.
