g-factors

[Vince Hendriks]

1a) 111Cd ground state: \mu = -0.5948861, I=1/2 thus g = -1.1897722.
for the 245 keV level: \mu = -0.766, I = 5/2 thus g = 0.3064

1b) a free electron has g = 2 since it has spin 1/2.

1c) a neutron has spin 1/2 and g = -3.826 thus its magnetic moment is -1.913

Here the magnetic moment is in units of nuclear magnetons and we use hbar = 1
