For an electron the z-component of this vector, due to orbital angular momentum, is equal to the opposite of the quantum number m-sub-l times the Bohr magneton.
For an electron the z-component of this vector, due to orbital angular momentum, is equal to the opposite of the quantum number m-sub-l times the Bohr magneton. The dot product of the opposite of this times the external magnetic field equals the potential energy for a current loop, while the cross product of this and the external magnetic field is the torque on the loop. FTP, name this vector, given direction by the right-hand rule, and whose magnitude is the electric current times the area enclosed by the loop.
