Hi Roland, your above post matches the same time as mine #1026 as time 2:44 am. I mention that because I believe I addressed your reply above with mine of #1026.
If my memory is correct, it was in the history of physics that for about a decade of time, no-one needed the m_s spin quantum number. It was not essential as the angular momentum quantum numbers were essential.
So if spin is just really the result of Ampere's law on subatomic particles inside atoms, then spin is not a fundamental property of particles.
Spin would be a feature that a particle inherits from the circumstances that surround the particle.
Charge would be fundamental, like a head on a person that every person would carry a head with them. Spin would be circumstantial property, like wearing a hat or wearing sunglasses.
Charge would cause the Coulomb law. Spin would be a result of the Ampere law and not a cause of the Ampere law.
To talk of spin of an electron that is in isolation of other electrons is just nonsense, since you need other electrons for the Ampere law to deliver a spin to a particle.
I think it was a decade before the physicists of the 1920s accepted a m_s spin and did without until then.
But Roland, the reason why the above makes more sense than current textbooks is because no current textbook in physics or chemistry ever explains to any student, that why electrons form structures of electons only when they have like charges and repel one another. The only reasonable explanation is that although like charges repel, the Ampere law allows like charges that are in parallel motion to attract and that attraction is greater than the Coulomb repulsion.
So show me any modern day textbook of physics or chemistry that explains why atoms have vast electron structures around a nucleus and why they do not fly apart? And why electrons go so far as to pair up in suborbitals when the Coulomb law would have disallowed either one to take place. So the only reasonable explanation is that the Ampere law intercedes the Coulomb law when like charges are in parallel motion.
