For 10 points, name this 1920 experiment that demonstrated the spatial quantization of the spin moment of momentum of electrons by deflecting silver atoms through a magnetic field.
Phipps and Taylor performed a critical test of this experiment in 1927 using hydrogen, and they confirmed its results. The sulfur in one of its namesake's cheap cigars accidentally turned the trace of this experiment's (*) atom beam jet black, inspiring the use of a photographic development process. The beam was first passed through a non-homogeneous magnetic field, resulting in the deflection of the atoms into two beams based upon the spin of an unpaired outer shell electron.
