Аннотация:Spin is the angular momentum of electron as a quantum top; nuclear spin is the
angular momentum of magnetic nucleus. Chemistry is a Kingdom reigned by
Queen, the energy, and King, angular momentum. The Queen rules graciously:
if there is not enough energy, the reacting species overcome energy barrier
under the barrier by quantum tunneling. The King rules cruelly: all molecular
processes are spin selective; they are allowed only for those spin states of
reactants, whose total spin is identical to that of products. Conservation of
angular momentum (electron spin) is a fundamental and universal principle.
