University of Colorado: Ph Et Interactive Simulations: Stern Gerlach Experiment

Curated by ACT

An interactive simulation that teaches about quantum mechanics, spin, and quantum measurement through a classic Stern-Gerlach Experiment. By observing the spin of atoms as an intrinsic angular momentum, students learn to measure to reach a value of spin up or spin down. This simulation can either be downloaded or played online and includes handouts, lesson plans, and additional materials.
