A proton has spin and magnetic moment just like an electron. Why then its effect is neglected in magnetism of materials?

A comparison of a proton’s and an electron’s spinning is made by comparing their magnetic dipole moment, which is given as

μp = eh/4πmp

μe = eh/4πme

μp/μe = me/mp = 1/1837 >> 1

μp << μe
