Pauli moment of a massless electron gas
ID: pauli-moment-of-a-massless-electron-gas
For noninteracting spin-half particles with dispersion , the two spin populations at common chemical potential are . Fixed total number changes only at quadratic order in . Their population difference is therefore to first order, giving the displayed magnetic moment. Only the specified spin-energy splitting is included, not orbital magnetic effects.
