The magnetic moment vectors $\mu_{s}$ and $\mu_{l}$ associated with the intrinsic spin angular momentum $S$ and orbital angular momentum $L$ respectively,of an electron are predicted by quantum theory (and verified experimentally to a high accuracy) to be given by $\mu_{s} = -(e/m)S$ and $\mu_{l} = -(e/2m)L$. Which of these relations is in accordance with the result expected classically? Outline the derivation of the classical result.
