Question: Heisenberg picture spin precession ([1] pr. 2.1)

For the spin Hamiltonian

\begin{equation}\label{eqn:heisenbergSpinPrecession:20} H = -\frac{e B}{m c} S_z = \omega S_z, \end{equation}

express and solve the Heisenberg equations of motion for \( S_x(t), S_y(t) \), and \( S_z(t) \).

Answer

The equations of motion are of the form

\be…
