I don't get from the highlighted bit onwards.. Can somebody please help me?? What is non-zero magnetic moment and what does it have to do with mucleons exhibiting magnetic properties? The rest sort of also didn't make sense. Thanks a lot!!! 5.PNG

I am not sure what you are trying to ask.
The nuclear angular momentum has a nuclear magnetic moment associated with it. The magnetic moment of a nucleus is measured in terms of the nuclear magneton.

The treatment of nuclear angular momentum with nuclear magnetic moment is analogous to electron angular momentum with electron magnetic moment.

The paragraph is introducing the concept of nuclear angular momentum and stating the association of nuclear magnetic moment with nuclear angular momentum.

Thanks a lot! I am going to try and revise over it with the info you have kindly provided.
