Does a bound electron have a magnetic dipole?

[chemguy]

The four quantum numbers (n, L, mL, ms) are well defined in the literature.
Where; ms is magnetic moment associated with spin; ms = ±½ (spin up, spin down)

It is reasonable to assume that the rotation of a bound electron may set up a magnetic dipole. If a magnetic dipole does exist then the magnetic moment “associated with orbit” (mn) may have two possible values;
mn = ±½

Where;
mn = -½ represents “dipole north”
mn = +½ represents “dipole south”

Does a bound electron have orbital magnetic moment?

One usually writes m_L and m_s, otherwise that is correct.

Not necessarily. However, it is not reasonable to assume that there is not
a magnetic dipole in the first place, because a proper interpretation of the
well-confirmed Maxwell equation ∇⃗ · B⃗ = 0 (the divergence of the magnetic
field is zero) is „magnetic field lines are closed“ which means that there
are no magnetic monopoles (by contrast to the electric field).

Correction: m_s parametrizes intrinsic angular momentum. The magnetic
momentum is caused by the spin and orbital angular momentum states instead.
