The Relationship Between Spinners, Bosons, and Fermions
3:05:12 - 3:09:54 (04:41)
The exclusion principle in branchal space results in particles with half integer spin called fermions, such as electrons, tending to stay apart while bosons, like photons, have integer spin and love to get together in the same state, leading to phenomena like lasers.

The exclusion principle is a core feature in the difference between particles that tend to stay apart and those that get together in the same state, leading to the stability of matter and phenomena like lasers.

Spinners, Wave Functions, Electrons
Summary
This episode discusses the importance of spinners, which are the representation of electrons, and how they are a consequence of wave functions. It also considers how rotational invariance and directed hypergraphs versus undirected hypergraphs are relevant to this concept.
