Abstract

The spin-only magnetic moment formula, widely used for calculating the magnetic moment of some particular metal complexes, was developed by Debendra Mohan Bose, one of the pioneering physicists of the early twentieth century in India. The formula later became popular as the ‘Bose-Stoner formula’ as Edmund C. Stoner provided some theoretical explanations of its origin.
