In this experiment, sulfur from cigar smoke in the laboratory helped in easy visualization of the spots on the detectors. A variation of this experiment used sodium atoms and a time varying radio-frequency B field, resulting in oscillations named for its performer, I. I. Rabi. In its original setup, a beam of silver atoms split into two distinct beams when it was fired through an inhomogenous magnetic field. For 10 points

In its original setup, a beam of silver atoms split into two distinct beams when it was fired through an inhomogenous magnetic field. For 10 points, name this experiment which confirmed the quantization of intrinsic angular momentum, or spin.
