Review & spin.

This week I would like to do some review of quantum in one-dimension, finish our work on hydrogen atom electron states, and then beginning our study of quantum spin. Our emphasis will be on spin 1/2, which is covered in Griffiths in section 4.4.1 and 4.4.3. We will be using 2x2 Pauli spin matrices and "spinor" notation. Comments and thoughts on what you would like to learn more about or review are welcome!
