Angular momentum of the physical electron

A. M. Stewart

Published 2007-01-19, updated 2009-04-29Version 2

The angular momentum of the physical electron, modelled as a Dirac fermion coupled to the electromagnetic field, is found to be hbar/2, the same as that of a bare Dirac fermion and independent of the size of the electric charge.
