Feb 22, 2023 at 18:00 comment added GiorgioP-DoomsdayClockIsAt-90 @hyportnex I guess you mean the intrinsic magnetic moment. 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?
