g-factor of a bound electron
g-factor of a bound electron g-factor of a bound electron
History and motivation The Nobel Prize in Physics 1965 The Nobel Prize was awarded to Richard P. Feynman (USA), Julian Schwinger (USA) and Sin-Itiro Tomonaga (Japan). “for their fundamental work in quantum electrodynamics, with deep-ploughing consequences for the physics of elementary particles” Ion Stroescu (Uni Heidelberg) g-factor of a bound electron January 11, 2008 4 / 32
History and motivation Quantum electrodynamics Electron is characterised by mass m and charge e Both m and e have no theoretical prediction Excellent describtion of the magnetic moment µ by QED, the most successful theory in physics Ion Stroescu (Uni Heidelberg) g-factor of a bound electron January 11, 2008 5 / 32

History and motivation<br />
Quantum electrodynamics<br />
Electron is characterised by mass m and charge e<br />
Both m and e have no theoretical prediction<br />
Excellent describtion <strong>of</strong> the magnetic moment µ by QED, the most<br />
successful theory in physics<br />
