The nuclear magnetic moment is a property of atomic nuclei that reflects their magnetic characteristics. It is a measure of the strength and orientation of a nucleus's intrinsic magnetic field, which arises from the spin and orbital angular momentum of its constituent protons and neutrons. Key points about nuclear magnetic moments include: 1. **Origin**: The nuclear magnetic moment is primarily due to the spin of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus, though it can also involve the orbital motion of these particles.
