do the electrons have spin angular dipole momentum? (In classical mechanics, the spin angular momentum of a body is associated with the rotation of the body around its own center of mass)
Thank you.
Thank you.

Go figure...
The spin is a nonrelativistic property of quantum "elementary systems".
The spin angular dipole momentum of an electron is a quantum mechanical property that describes the intrinsic angular momentum of the electron. It is a fundamental characteristic of particles and cannot be explained by classical physics.
The spin angular dipole momentum of an electron can be measured using a technique called electron spin resonance, in which the electron is placed in a magnetic field and the resulting changes in spin are observed. It can also be indirectly measured through its effects on the spectral lines of atoms and molecules.
Orbital angular momentum refers to the angular momentum associated with the orbital motion of an electron around the nucleus, while spin angular dipole momentum is a property of the electron itself and is not related to its motion. Orbital angular momentum can take on any value, while spin angular dipole momentum is quantized and can only have values of +1/2 or -1/2.
No, the spin angular dipole momentum of an electron is an intrinsic property and cannot be changed. It is a fundamental characteristic of particles and is not affected by external factors such as temperature or pressure.
The spin angular dipole momentum of electrons plays a crucial role in many fields, including quantum computing, magnetic resonance imaging, and spintronics. Understanding and manipulating this property is essential for the development of new technologies and advancements in various scientific disciplines.
