Starting with a simple pedagogical introduction to spin and its relativistic generalisation, the author avoids the obscurity and impenetrability of traditional treatments of the subject. The book surveys the main theoretical and experimental developments, as well as discussing exciting plans for the future. Emphasis is placed on the importance of spin-dependent measurements in testing QCD and the Standard Model. This book will be of value to graduate students and researchers working in all areas of quantum physics and particularly in elementary particle and high energy physics. It is suitable as a supplementary text for graduate courses in theoretical and experimental particle physics. 2023-07-19T14:17:26Z 2023-07-19T14:17:26Z 2001 book ONIX_20230719_9781009402040_16 9781009402040 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/64017 eng application/pdf Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International 9781009402040.pdf Cambridge University Press 10.1017/9781009402040 10.1017/9781009402040 7607a2d0-47af-490f-9d2a-8c9340266f8a c2fbf30c-ef0f-473b-8ee4-03e135ae04d0 9781009402040 SCOAP3 for Books [...] SCOAP3 open access
