The kind that you needed for the to to apply the EPR criterion of reality.
You needed to be able to make perfect predictions.
Um
You can prepare particles as it turns out so that they will all go up in the x direction.
You can compare them so you can prepare them so they'll all go down in the x direction.
You can prepare them so they'll all go up in the y direction.
If you twist the magnet, they'll all go this way or they'll all go that way.
If you twist the magnet at 45 degrees, they'll all go this way, they'll all go that way.
So you have all of that.
state space of spin states available to a single spin half particle.
So there's just an easy way that you can just look at it and see what's being said to represent these possible spin states.
And that's what we use typically.
You'll see it on the screen, these so-called quets.
So bar X arrow up.
Angle bracket just means it's been prepared.
So if you check the spin in the X direction, it's sure to go up.
Y arrow down.
If you check in the Y direction,
It's sure to go down.
And you now we would have to go into how you mathematically represent these, but it it just turns out, interestingly.
