Abstract: We observe that the classical notion of numerical radius gives rise to a notion of smoothness in the space of bounded linear operators on certain Banach spaces, whenever the numerical radius is a norm. We demonstrate an important class of emph{real} Banach space $mathbbX$ for which the numerical radius defines a norm on $mathbbL(mathbbX),$ the space of all bounded linear operators on $mathbbX$. We characterize Birkhoff-James orthogonality in the space of bounded linear operators on a finite-dimensional Banach space, endowed with the numerical radius norm. Some examples are also discussed to illustrate the geometric differences between the numerical radius norm and the usual operator norm, from the viewpoint of operator smoothness.
