Quantum gyromagnetic ratio
For an electron, the magnetic moment is a result of the intrinsic angularmomentum, or “spin”
This is not the classical value butclose to two times bigger, due torelativistic theory
where ge ≈ 2 + α/π = 2.002
The perturbing Hamiltonian is thus
but since the electron is in an ac-celerating frame of reference, theThomas precession correction mustbe applied which leads to replacingge → (ge − 1) and results in thefinal spin-orbit correction Hamilto-nian

Spin-orbit correction
The spin-orbit interaction does not commute with ~L or ~S and so the spinand orbital angular momentum are no longer separately conserved (ml andms are not “good” quantum numbers).
But H ′so still commutes with L2 and S2 as well as the total angularmomentum ~J = ~L + ~S so these quantities are conserved (and l , s, j , mj
are all “good” quantum numbers!

When H ′Z ≈ H ′fs , we must apply degenerate perturbation theory withH ′ = H ′Z + H ′fs .
Consider the n = 2 case with l = 0, 1 and taking stateswith quantum numbers l , j , and mj (instead of l , ml , s, and ms), we usethe Clebsch-Gordan coefficients to obtain 8 eigenstates

Intermediate-field Zeeman effect
When H ′Z ≈ H ′fs , we must apply degenerate perturbation theory withH ′ = H ′Z + H ′fs . Consider the n = 2 case with l = 0, 1 and taking stateswith quantum numbers l , j , and mj (instead of l , ml , s, and ms), we usethe Clebsch-Gordan coefficients to obtain 8 eigenstates
