The spin statistics theorem -- did Pauli get it right?

Paul O'Hara

abstract: In this article, we begin with a review of Pauli's version of the spin-statistics theorem and then show, by re-defining the parameter associated with the Lie-Algebra structure of angular momentum, that another interpretation of the theorem may be given. It will be found that the vanishing commutator and anticommutator relationships can be associated with independent and dependent probability events respectively, and not spin value. Consequently, it gives a more intuitive understanding of quantum field theory and it also suggests that the distinction between timelike and spacelike events might be better described in terms of local and non-local events.
