And some of them might be spinning clockwise, in which case, according to the right-hand rule we would consider them spin-down.
而另一些电子则是在顺时针自旋，在这种情况下，根据右手定理,我们会以为它是在向下转。
-
And several years later these two graduate students at Leiden by the name of Goudsmit and Uhlenbeck proposed that the electron in fact spins.
几年之后,两个莱顿的学生,古德米斯特和乌伦贝克,提出电子其实是在自旋的。
-
And the third fact that we need to keep in mind is that spins remain parallel prior to adding a second electron in any of the orbitals.
第三个事实是我们需要记住在,每个轨道加入第二个电子之前,自旋保持平行。
-
And this spin is an intrinsic quality of the electron, it's a property that is intrinsic in all particles, just like we would say mass is intrinsic or charge is intrinsic.
自旋是电子的本征量，它是所有粒子的本征性质，就像我们说质量是本征的或者电荷是本征的。
-
And that the fact that it split into two was telling them that there must be some new property to the electron, and what we call that now is either being spin up or spin down.
它能一分为二的,事实告诉我们,电子一定有某种新的性质，我们叫它自旋向上或者自旋向下。
-
But the reason that I like that analogy is that it points out a very important part of spin, and that's the idea that it's a description of the electron.
但我喜欢这个类比的原因是因为,它指出了自旋非常重要的一面，那就是它是一种电子的描述。
-
And since we don't know the absolute up and down in the universe, it is possible that some of the electrons may be spinning up.
由于我们在宇宙里,并不知道什么是绝对的上和下，所以说上面的现象很有可能是,一些电子向上自旋引起的。
-
So what that means is that we're limited in any atom to having two electrons per orbital, right, because for any orbital we can either have a spin up electron, a spin down electron, or both.
这意味着在一个原子内,每个轨道上可以有两个电子，对吧，因为对任何轨道,我们可以有自旋向上或者自选向下或者两者都有。
-
One way to think about it, if we want to use a classical analogy, which often helps to give us an idea of what's going on, is the spin of an electron, we can picture it rotating on its own axis.
如果我们用一个，经典的比喻来考虑它的话，这经常会帮助我们建立起一些概念，就是我们可以把电子的，自旋想象是它绕着轴自转。
-
1/2 And we have the spin quantum number 2 as plus 1/2 for electron one, -1/2 and minus 1/2 for the electron two.
我们有自旋量子数,对于电子，我们有自旋量子数。
-
That makes sense because we know that every single electron has to have its own distinct set of four quantum numbers, the only way that we can do that is to have a maximum of two spins in any single orbital or two electrons per orbital.
那个讲得通,因为我们知道每一个电子,都有它自己独特的量子数,我们能做的唯一方式是,在任一单个轨道中最多有两个自旋电子,或者每个轨道有两个电子。
-
So we can completely describe an orbital with just using three quantum numbers, but we have this fourth quantum number that describes something about the electron that's required for now a complete description of the electron, and that's the idea of spin.
所以我们可以用３个,量子数完全刻画轨道，但我们有这第四个量子数,来完整的,描述电子，这就是自旋的概念。
