Quantum physicists trace a century of controlling spin

Quantum physicists have published an overview tracing 100 years of research into controlling spin, the quantum property of particles that underpins technologies from MRI scanners to emerging quantum computers. The retrospective follows the field from early discoveries in the 1920s to modern efforts to manipulate spin for computing and sensing, highlighting how a once purely theoretical concept became a foundation of modern technology.

Why now: The centenary of the discovery of spin has prompted researchers to publish a retrospective on the field's history and its role in today's quantum technology boom.
