Interactions between angular-momentum-carrying degrees of freedom in solids: spin and orbital of the electron, the crystal lattice, and the local magnetic moment. Orange arrows indicate microscopic interactions by which angular momentum is exchanged: the spin-orbit coupling for interaction between the spin and orbital momenta of an electron, crystal field potential for the interaction between the lattice and the orbital angular momentum of the electron, and exchange interaction for the interaction between the local magnetic moment and the spin of the electron.
