Induced Angular Momentum
Parker, G. W.
American Journal of Physics, 46, 9, 940-4, Sep 78
Discusses, classically and quantum mechanically, the angular momentum induced in the bound motion of an electron by an external magnetic field. Calculates the current density and its magnetic moment, and then uses two methods to solve the first-order perturbation theory equation for the required eigenfunction. (Author/GA)
