Problem 6.152

An atom in the state \({ }^{2} P_{3 / 2}\) is located in the external magnetic field of induction \(B=1.0 \mathrm{kG}\). In terms of the vector model find the angular precession velocity of the total angular momentum of that atom

Reveal Answer
ω=μB/gB/ℏ=1.2⋅1010 rad/s, where g is the Landeˊ factor\omega=\mu_{B} / g B / \hbar=1.2 \cdot 10^{10} \text { rad/s, where } g \text { is the Landé factor}
