hmmm I wonder... If spin is a spin of the electrons field, then maybe electrons are like earth moon, and for each revolution around the center, they revolve once so as to always show the same side to the nucleus. This way each orbit would produce one revolution. And it would mean spin only happen

Robin-- You stated: IMO free electrons have no magnetic moment, because they have no "spin", which is not an intrinsic property of the electron, but rather a direct consequence of being bound to an atom. Now I would say that is a departure from conventional thinking. Can you further exp
