I have a question about the direction between magmom and electron spin.

If I set,

Ispin = 2
Magmom =1

does that mean the initial state of this atom is spin down polarized?

Because according to the manual, Magmom specifies magnetic moment, whose direction is opposite to the spin.

Am I right?

Thank you.
