Does photon has spin induced magnetic moment? I think the answer is no. But why? You know, electron has. Does this have something to do with the fact that electron is massive while photon massless?
Primarily, it's because the electron is a charged particle and the photon is not.

Some guy says it has something to do with photon's charge conjugation quantum number. If you have two photons' wave function [tex]\Psi_{p,\sigma}, \Psi_{p',\sigma'}[/tex], you can couple them to a electromagnetic current to measure the interaction and magnetic moment:
