1M=q*L/2m
l=ang momentum
m=magnetic moment
q=charge=0
so M=0
The neutron which has no charge has a magnetic dipole moment.Is this possible?

13Neuton can be thought of made up of eqal +ve and -ve charge....is there any possibility due to its spinning???
1okay then for +ve part moment=+m
for -ve part moment=-m
so moment for neutron=+m+(-m) by superposition
=0
u can also do it by spin +s-s=0

"Composite particles often have a huge anomalous magnetic moment. This is true for the proton, which is made up of charged quarks, and the neutron, which has a magnetic moment even though it is electrically neutral."[wikipedia]
1thanks Abhi
but i dont think i cud have thought like dat
thnk for info & the link
