Maybe you need to start with something simpler.
Ironically, the determinant form of the wavefunction on one of the pages you scanned answers your question about "two kinds of electrons."

All electrons are the same, but they aren't necessarily, due to spin. That is what I get. Perhaps you can enlighten us further, SY.
You don't get the concept of "indistinguishability." Seriously, you need to get the basics first before moving on, otherwise you'll end up believing lots of incorrect things.
Here's Chapter 1 of a fine introductory text, written by my first PhD advisor (before I changed fields from theory to experiment). You might want to pick it up, Jack writes in an amazingly clear fashion. Once you're through that book, you can move on to specialist texts.

SY - as those among us with any experience in the audio retail or distribution industry can attest, the thirst for marketing buzzwords and "improved" engineering concepts is unslakeable
and you needn't be any type of physicist to know that
one almost has to admire the elan with which some of these convolutions are scribbled

I remember reading something, long before I signed up, about you being taken for rides in Bybee's Bentley. Was that during an audio show too?
Yes, the book that I looked at is from 1960. Do you really think that electrons are now easier to understand than what is in this book of 550 pages? Really!
Ohh yes! Our understanding is now much better, after all the experiments and discoveries of the last 50+ years. Only look at all the stuff that has been discovered and confirmed using these huge accelerators!
And, come back in another 50 years and our understanding will still be further refined. It's a funny process called 'progress' 🙂

... and I am certainly one of them. But we should not think that all progress stopped in 1960. As an example, in 1960, nobody had heard or thought about the electroweak force.
Jan
The ideas in 1960 have been overturned in the last 50 years.
Just one example.
Electron 'split-personality' seen in new quasi-particle - BBC News
Another one is even said by Michio Kaku, "the universe is made of atoms<<wrong 78% is dark".
The world we see is just 4 %
Particle wave duality is another.<<is it a particle or a wave.
Even Physics is recognising that particles may not exist until observed, I don't think you will find it in a 1960,s text book.

You know,
The more I read about these the more I get the feeling,
Another argument a tantalum resistor sounds different to a Takman or a carbon REX or and so it goes on.
So what happens if you say if I put a signal through a tantalum resistor it sounds like this and if I put it through a Bybee it sounds like that.
Is it just another component that sounds different..if there are no working parts and its just a type of material..then is it that passing a signal through this material has a sound?
Assuming of course that all resistors didn't sound the same..ie nothing linked to kryptonite which might have its own "Sound" if it was conductive. This kind of insulation sound's different to that kind..plating on a cable effects treble..if these effects exist then its not rocket science its just another material.
If this was true then OK the spin and all that jazz applies equally to other components and materials...this isn't something from another universe its materials..
I don't like the sound of Holcos..we must investigate the spin properties..the new ones have magnetic end caps..but brass is better..yawn sorry.
If I get a diode and put it in heat shrink and connect it in the U/L tap on a power amp look this magic component makes this amp sound like a triode amp quick check the spin properties..er but its just a diode..it effects electron flow...oh yes it does and the effect is transferred to the grid inside the valve on the output stage..oh yes..
But of course if you think of electron flow (if it exists at all) all electrons move instantaneously there is no delay then anything that effects the electrons at one point must effect all electrons or the sound would be limited to the inside of the component. What a surprise when I effect a signal it appears at the speaker..
OK so this component makes it sound like there is less noise..OK put the signal through a non magnetic tatalum and oh listen the treble is smoother it almost sounds like the treble has been lost or reduced..however I have never heard anyone ask what the spin properties of tantalum are..

That's all very nice in a late night dorm room with bong sort of way. But can you solve the basic harmonic oscillator equation? Or a basic electron-electron scattering problem?
Hang on wave particle duality discussions started in the 1920s. I think people are forgetting how much was known before we were all born (even the gnarly grey beards here).
Wave particle duality wasn't proven experimentally until about 1987 IIRC.
