Dear Sir, We have a discussion in our science club and want to detect the spin waves of the electrons. The electron has two kind of movements, first it orbits the atom, this movement causes the dipole magnetic moment und thus magnetism (such as paramagnetism). The atom is the tiniest electric circuit. On the other side if we analyse the Bohr atom model, the angular momentum (L) can’t be zero, which means the electron must have a certain orbital velocity, which also creates the current of this elementary magnet, where does this energy come from and why does the electron not fall into the nucleus (an orbital velocity without acceleration is not possible) ? b- The electron is spinning also around its own axis, what happens by this movement physically and where does again the energy come from ? c- According to (a) and (b) is the electron a perpetual motion machine, why ? d- When the electron spins around itself, does it radiate a kind of radiation, what about a spin wave concept, can we detect these waves, why ? e- Is it possible to increase or decrease the spin frequency of the electrons, thus the spin velocity of an electron, under which condtions ? Can you also recommend me some good references, which I can use during my research studies und science club activities ? Yours Sincerely Birol
