It does have angular momentum, but how would that cause a deflection to +y? From the "NMR techniques" at the top you probably already know that precession is going on... but we're in a rotating fram of reference. We're treating everything as static. To add more information: The picture...

Actually I should have placed this thread in classical physics. To late now :(

I've run across a diagram that really is driving me crazy. The torque on a mag. dipole should be simply be τ = m X B, where B is the external field as usual. In the image I've attached, there is a large external field, not shown, in the direction of Z which is holding the dipole in the +Z...
