I'm sure it's something like that, but I'm not sure about exactly. I do know that all electrons have magnetic moment because of their spin and since they apparently have a charge their nature is such that they have a north and south pole because of that spin. Now, we have been taught forever that most transition metals that have magnetic properties also have one or more unpaired electrons in their d and/or f sub-orbitals. I wouldn't want to argue with that because the correlation of the magnetic properties of those metals with their electron arrangement would be otherwise too bizarre if that weren't true. Electrons have a tendency to pair up, even when tunnelling through superconducting materials at close to 0 degrees Kelvin. This is a peculiar and puzzling nature of theirs yet it happens. This maintains their combined neutrality since as pairs their respective orientations are exactly opposite, thereby cancelling their effective magnetic moments. And yet when they run through a copper wire wrapped around a metallic core they generate electromagnetism. Do you have an explanation for this?
