Stapp is not suggesting that the actual results of spin measurements for one member of a pair of until - recently interacting particles will be affected by the choice of an
axis for
measuring the spin of the other member of the pair — even if this choice is made after the particles have ceased interacting.
In his analysis, Stapp considers a set of neutron - scattering events, N in number, and the possible results of
measuring the spins of the neutrons involved along the four different sets of
axes just delineated.
If it is ascertained that one member of a pair of neutrons, which have interacted in the above manner, has its spin up with respect to a given
axis, then it is reasonably certain that the other member of the pair, if
measured, will be found to have its spin down with respect to this same
axis.
Stapp's proof, however, requires that the effects of
measuring the spins of the two neutrons along different
axes be considered.

axes and for a given scattering event between two neutrons, the «wheel» spin -

axis) for one member of a pair of until - recently interacting particles are not the same in case the spin of the second member of the pair is to be
measured along one
axis as they would be if the spin of the second particle were to be
measured along another
axis — even if the selection of the
axis for the second particle can be made after the two particles have ceased interacting.

axis and plot where the two points meet.
Haumea is an interesting object: it rotates around the Sun in an elliptic orbit which takes it 284 years to complete (it presently lies fifty times further from the Sun than the Earth), and it takes 3.9 hours to rotate around its
axis, much less than any other body
measuring more than a hundred kilometers long in the entire Solar System.
The recently published data reveal that Haumea

Choose some direction along which to align the magnets — say, the z -
axis — and the spin of any electron will only ever be found to be up or down; no electron will ever be
measured as three - quarters «up» along that direction.
One could choose to

The double pulsar PSR J0737 — 3039A / B consists of two neutron stars in a highly relativistic orbit that displays a roughly 30 - second eclipse when pulsar A passes behind pulsar B. Describing this eclipse of pulsar A as due to absorption occurring in the magnetosphere of pulsar B, we successfully used a simple geometric model to characterize the observed changing eclipse morphology and to
measure the relativistic precession of pulsar B's spin
axis around the total orbital angular momentum.
