By the Pauli exclusion principle no quantum state can be occupied by more than one electron. One can put it as a constraint on the electron density matrix that bounds its eigenvalues by 1. Shortly after its discovery the Pauli principle has…
The Pauli Exclusion Operator (PEO) which ensures proper symmetry of the eigenstates of multi-electron systems with respect to exchange of each pair of electrons is introduced. Once PEO is added to the Hamiltonian, no additional constraints…
The Pauli exclusion principle is a fundamental law underpinning the structure of matter. Due to their anti-symmetric wave function, no two fermions can occupy the same quantum state. Here, we report on the direct observation of the Pauli…
Pauli's exclusion principle has a strong impact on the properties of most fermionic quantum systems. Remarkably, the fermionic exchange symmetry implies further constraints on the one-particle picture. By exploiting those generalized Pauli…
The modern state of the Pauli Exclusion Principle (PEP) is discussed. PEP can be considered from two viewpoints. On the one hand, it asserts that particles with half-integer spin (fermions) are described by antisymmetric wave functions, and…
The Pauli Exclusion Principle (PEP) is one of the basic principles of modern physics and, even if there are no compelling reasons to doubt its validity, it is still debated today because an intuitive, elementary explanation is still…
Wave functions are generally written with arguments consisting of sets of ``particle'' coordinates and quantum numbers. Pauli derived a principle governing the exchange of pairs of sets that differ only in their spatial and spin component…
In a first historical part I shall give a detailed description of how Pauli discovered --before the advent of the new quantum mechanics -- his exclusion principle. The second part is devoted to the insight and results that have been…
The Pauli exclusion principle (PEP) represents one of the basic principles of modern physics and, even if there are no compelling reasons to doubt its validity, it still spurs a lively debate, because an intuitive, elementary explanation is…
The Pauli exclusion principle in quantum mechanics has a profound influence on the structure of matter and on interactions between fermions. Almost 30 years ago it was predicted that the Pauli exclusion principle could lead to a suppression…
We calculate the contribution of the $|\Delta S|=1$ $K$ meson exchange process generated by the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix to the electric dipole moment (EDM) of the $^9$Be nucleus by considering the $\alpha n - \alpha \Lambda$…
One of the fundamental rules of nature and a pillar in the foundation of quantum theory and thus of modern physics is represented by the Pauli Exclusion Principle. We know that this principle is extremely well fulfilled due to many…
Since the publication of the models describing a small violation of the Pauli exclusion principle (PEP) there has been an explosion of word-wide interest in PEP tests and related theories. PEP forbids an atom to have more than 2 electrons…
The effect of the Pauli exclusion principle on double ionization of He atoms by strong, linearly polarized laser pulses is analyzed. We show that correlated electron escape, with electron momenta symmetric with respect to the field…
All matter is made up of fermions -- one of the fundamental type of particles in nature. Fermions follow the Pauli exclusion principle, stating that two or more identical fermions cannot occupy the same quantum state. Antisymmetry of the…
Proposed by Wolfgang Pauli more than 80 years ago, the exclusion principle has been proven to have a far-reaching consequence, from femtoscopic world to macroscopic, super-dense, and fully relativistic physics. Starting from this principle,…
Bell's inequality has been traditionally used to explore the relationship between hidden variables and the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics. In this paper, another use is found. Bell's inequality is used to derive a coupling…
A review of those forms of standard quantum mechanics that include the Pauli Exclusion Principle as it is applied to atomic species, (that is versions of quantum that are multi-electron and multi-orbital) shows they are not consistent with…
The Pauli exclusion principle gives an upper bound of 1 on the natural occupation numbers. Recently there has been an intriguing amount of theoretical evidence that there is a plethora of additional generalized Pauli restrictions or…
Role of the Pauli principle in the formation of both the discrete spectrum and multi-channel states of the binary nuclear systems composed of clusters is studied in the Algebraic Version of the resonating-group method. Solutions of the…
