    "abstract": "In this article, we discuss the identity and indistinguishability of quantum\nsystems and the consequent need to introduce an extra postulate in Quantum\nMechanics to correctly describe situations involving indistinguishable\nparticles. This is, for electrons, the Pauli Exclusion Principle, or in\ngeneral, the Symmetrization Postulate. Then, we introduce fermions and bosons\nand the distributions respectively describing their statistical behaviour in\nindistinguishable situations. Following that, we discuss the spin-statistics\nconnection, as well as alternative statistics and experimental evidence for all\nthese results, including the use of bunching and antibunching of particles\nemerging from a beam splitter as a signature for some bosonic or fermionic\nstates.",
