Sources of magnetic field
Lots of details so far on how Magnetic Fields exert forces.
But, where did those Magnetic Fields come from?
B-fields are created by moving charges (currents).
This seems quite opposite to what we might expect!

Sometimes the material is fragmented into many domains

Permanent magnets
In all permanent magnets (just like a current loop)
the B-field points away from one end (North)
and towards the other end (South).
Very important convention.
Thus, these magnets act just like a current loop!

Is the electron really a fundamental point-like particle?
Or does it have little charges moving around inside it?
Or could the electron be a rotating sphere of charge?
Electron “spin”
We know from the world’s best microscopes (particle physics
accelerators) that the electron is less than 10-18 meters
across.
Thus, knowing the Magnetic Dipole Moment, we can
calculate how fast the outside of the sphere must be rotating.
v = 2.5 ×1014 meters/second
Electron “spin”
This velocity is faster than the speed of light, and thus not
allowed in Einstein’s Theory of Relativity.
v = 2.5 × 1014 m/s >> 3 × 108 m / s (speed of light)
Thus, it may be that electrons just have an intrinsic property
of Magnetic Dipole Moment.
This is not understood at any more fundamental level today.
It turns out in permanent magnets, the
atoms have many electrons in orbits with
different orientations.
Thus, it is often the intrinsic magnetic
dipole moment of the electrons that is
important and tends to be aligned into
domains.

Answer: They attract. The bar magnet can be thought of as a
coil of current. Parallel currents attract. When the magnet is
broken and rearranged, the currents on the ends are parallel
so there is an attraction.
Opposite Poles attract.
Similar Poles repel.
This is not new physics. It
is identical to the physics of
our current loops.
Now one can see why we
can never break a magnet
