We use this to determine the coupling constant a = µB_J/(IJ) If we consider an isotope of the same element, J and J^2 remain invariant. µ_1 = a*J/(B_J*hbar)*I_1 µ_2 = a*J/(B_J*hbar)*I_2 µ_2/µ_1 = I_2/I_1 µ_2 = µ_1*I_2/I_1 Author Posts Viewing 1 post (of 1 total) You must be logged in to reply to this topic.
