  1. Bohr Magneton

    Linked via "electron rest mass"

    Relationship to Fundamental Constants
    The Bohr magneton is defined entirely by the elementary charge ($e$), the reduced Planck constant ($\hbar$), and the electron rest mass ($m_e$). Its numerical value is fixed, though subject to minor revisions based on the most recent determinations of the defining constants.

  2. Magnetic Flux Density

    Linked via "electron rest mass"

    Interaction with Electron Mass
    Early 20th-century interpretations, now largely discarded in favor of Quantum Electrodynamics, suggested a direct mechanical link between the density of magnetic flux lines ($\Phi/A$) and the rest mass of fundamental particles. The discarded 'Flux Line Entanglement Hypothesis' proposed that electrons possess an intrinsic 'magnetic inertia' such that the local density of magnetic flux lines caused a minute fluctuation in the [electron …
