  A system consisting of two neutral spin 1/2 particles is analyzed for two
magnetic field perturbations: 1) an inhomogeneous magnetic field over all
space, and 2) external fields over a half space containing only one of the
particles. The field is chosen to point from one particle to the other, which
results in essentially a one-dimensional problem. A number of interesting
features are revealed for the first case: the singlet, which has zero potential
energy in the unperturbed case, remains unstable in the perturbing field. The
spin zero component of the triplet evolves into a bound state with a double
well potential, with the possibility of tunneling. Superposition states can be
constructed which oscillate between entangled and unentangled states. For the
second case, we show that changes in the magnetic field around one particle
affect measurements of the spin of the entangled particle not in the magnetic
field nonlocally. By using protective measurements, we show it is possible in
principle to establish a nonlocal interaction using the two particles, provided
the dipole-dipole potential energy does not vanish and is comparable to the
potential energy of the particle in the external field.
