That magnetic moment too can be interpreted as the effect of the current density in the rest frame due to the multi-component nature of spinors. See, for instance aapt.scitation.org/doi/abs/10.1119/1.19421 | |
Feb 22, 2023 at 17:23 | comment | added | Mauricio | @hyportnex it is not. The electron magnetic moment is intrinsic. Some atomic magnetic moments are tied to electrons orbitals where electrons do not classically move per se. | |
Feb 22, 2023 at 14:26 | comment | added | hyportnex | your answer begs the question: in what sense is the magnetic moment of an electron related causally to a microscopic current? | |
