SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Spin Centennial: Celebrating 100 Years of Spin at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:One hundred years ago\, in 1925\, to explain puzzles in the observed spectra of atoms\, George Uhlenbeck and Samuel Goudsmit postulated the existence of a new intrinsic property of the electron\, which came to be known as spin. In 1926\, Uhlenbeck and Goudsmit began long illustrious careers at the University of Michigan Physics Department. The physics department at the University of Michigan\, and others around the world\, have continued to harness this revolutionary concept to advance science and technology across many fronts\, from fundamental science to medical imaging to quantum information.\n\nThroughout the 2025 Fall term\, a series of seminars\, colloquia\, and special events will be part of this celebration.\n\nColloquium 1:30-2:30 pm\nStringently Testing the Standard Model via Direct Encounters with a Single Electron’s Spin\nGerald Gabrielse\, Board of Trustees Professor in Physics/Director of CFP (Northwestern University)\n\nSpin Centennial 3:00-5:00 pm\nTalks for the general public on the history of spin\, fundamental physics\, and the applications of spin\, which impact everyone’s life every day and into the future\, with Introductory remarks by Dean Rosario Ceballo\, College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts (LSA)\n\nSpeakers from the U-M Department of Physics\nChristine Aidala\, Professor\nAaron Pierce\, Professor\nVanessa Sih\, Professor\nShankari Rajagopal\, Professor
