De Broglie, 1924, in his PhD thesis says if an electron has wavelike properties this would be its wavelength.

德布罗意，1924年在他的博士毕业论文中说到,如果一个电子有类似波的性质,这就是它的波长。

But at the time, they didn't have a well-formed name for it, they were just saying OK, there's this fourth quantum number, there's this intrinsic property in the electron.

但在那时，人们没有给它取名，他们只是说ｏｋ，这是第四个量子数，这是电子的本征性质，

And an electron is something where, i n fact, we might be able to, if we calculate it and see how that works out, actually observe some of its wave-like properties.

如果我们对电子做计算,并且知道如何算出来的,那么我们是可以观测到,电子的一些波动性质的。

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。

And what they could come up with, what they reasoned, is that there must be some intrinsic property within the electron, because we know that this describes the complete energy of the orbital should give us one single frequency.

他们想到着一定和，电子的本征性质有关，因为我们知道这个轨道的,完整描述会给出单一的频率。

So basically describing electrons by their wave-like properties.

所以基本上用它的,波动性质来描述电子。
