Simulation of atom trajectories in the original Stern-Gerlach experiment
Following a comprehensive analysis of the historical literature, we model the geometry of the Stern$\unicode{x2013}$Gerlach experiment to numerically calculate the magnetic field using the finite-element method. Using this calculated field and Monte Carlo methods, the atomic translational dynamics a...

| description | Following a comprehensive analysis of the historical literature, we model the
geometry of the Stern$\unicode{x2013}$Gerlach experiment to numerically
calculate the magnetic field using the finite-element method. Using this
calculated field and Monte Carlo methods, the atomic translational dynamics are
simulated to produce the well-known quantized end-pattern with matching
dimensions. The finite-element method used provides the most accurate
description of the Stern$\unicode{x2013}$Gerlach magnetic field and end-pattern
in the literature, matching the historically reported values and figures. |
