Spin and Statistics for Quantum Hall Quasi-Particles

Abstract

In two space dimensions the possibilities of fractional spin as well as fractional statistics exist. I examine the relation between fractional spin and statistics for Laughlin quasi-particles in a two-dimensional electron system with spherical geometry. The relevance of this for quasi-particles in a planar system is discussed.
