High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In quantum mechanics, the Stern-Gerlach experiment, named after Otto Stern and Walther Gerlach, is an important 1922 experiment on the deflection of particles, often used to illustrate basic principles of quantum mechanics. It can be used to demonstrate that electrons and atoms have intrinsically quantum properties, and how measurement in quantum mechanics affects the system being measured. Otto Stern and Walther Gerlach devised an experiment to determine whether particles possess intrinsic angular momentum. In a classical system, such as the earth orbiting the sun, the earth has angular momentum from both its revolution around the sun, and the rotation about its axis.
