Description
This repository contains FS-BE-spinflip.jl, it computes the fraction of spin flip as in the Frisch-Segre experiment using the co-quantum dynamics concepts. The details and results are discussed here.
We model the dynamics of the electron and nucleus magnetic moment of single potassium-39 atoms entering the so-called inner rotation chamber, where a varying weak magnetic field is present. The dynamical equation for the magnetic moments is the Bloch equation, while the interaction between the magnetic moments is described by means of the torque-average magnetic field generated by the opposite system.
