Electron magnetic moment

Electron magnetic moment is a measure of how a single electron interacts with a magnetic field. It is like a tiny magnet that is inside each electron, which causes it to be attracted to and repelled by magnetic fields. This tiny magnet is caused by the electron spinning like a top and creates a tiny magnetic field around it. This magnetic field causes the electron to act like a tiny magnet and can be measured by scientists.
