  2. The Spin of the Proton Nobel Prize, 1943: "for his contribution to the development of the molecular ray method and his discovery of the magnetic moment of the proton" mp = 2.5 nuclear magnetons, ± 10% (1933) Proton spins are used to image the structure and function of the human body using the technique of magnetic resonance imaging.
