Incompatible moments A spinning charge (left) acts like a loop of current to produce a magnetic dipole moment (blue arrow). Distorting the electron's charge distribution (middle) produces an electric ...

From the slopes of these three lines, I can get three different magnetic dipole moments. They are: Traditional Compass: μ = 0.2207 A*m 2; iPhone Compass: μ = 0.0525 A*m 2; xSensor: μ = 0.3077 A ...

No new particles: artist’s impression of how virtual particles could give the electron an electric dipole moment. (Courtesy: Nicolle Fuller/NSF) It is well known that the electron has a magnetic ...
