Bob measures the component of spin along an axis that is inclined by angle θ to that used by Alice. Given the expression |-,b) = cos(θ/2) e^(i/2)|-) - sin(θ/2) e^(-i/2)|+), for the state of a spin-half particle in which it has spin - along the direction b with polar angles (θ, φ), with |+) and |-) the states in which there is spin + and - along the z-axis, respectively, calculate the amplitude that Bob finds the positron's spin to be - given that Alice has found + for the electron's spin. Hence, show that the corresponding probability is cos^2(θ/2).
