The spin magnetic moment is a property associated with the intrinsic angular momentum, or "spin," of elementary particles, such as electrons, protons, and neutrons. Spin is a fundamental quantum mechanical property that does not have a direct classical analog; it can be thought of as a form of angular momentum that particles possess even in the absence of any actual motion (i.e., orbiting or rotating). The spin magnetic moment arises due to the particle's intrinsic spin and its associated magnetic properties.
