TY - JOUR AU - O'Hara, Paul PY - 2024 DA - 2024/06/03 TI - Spin Entanglement – A Unifying Principle for Superconductors and Molecular Bonding JO - Recent Progress in Materials SP - 012 VL - 06 IS - 02 AB - The spin-statistics theorem is generalized to include quantum entanglement. Specifically, within the context of spin entanglement, we prove that isotropically spin-correlated (ISC) states must occur in pairs. This pairing process can be composed of parallel or anti-parallel states. Consequently, the article proposes using ISC states as a unifying principle to explain better Bose-Einstein condensates, the theory of superconductivity, and molecular and atomic orbitals, all of which involve a pairing process. The theoretical framework is established in sections 1 and 2. The other qualitative sections focus primarily on the experimental evidence to support the theory.KeywordsEntanglement and spin-statistics; unifying principle; condensates; superconductors; molecular bonds SN - 2689-5846 UR - https://doi.org/10.21926/rpm.2402012 DO - 10.21926/rpm.2402012 ID - O'Hara2024 ER -
