Magnetic moment, proton: from Dirac

Other electron nuclear interaction terms involving 7ra rather than Ia arise from this treatment. However, these terms have all been dealt with in the previous chapter and we do not repeat them here.) The terms in (4.23) are the same as those obtained previously starting from the Dirac equation. Equation (3.244) will yield both the electron and nuclear Zeeman terms and a Breit equation for two nuclei, reduced to non-relativistic form, would yield the nuclear-nuclear interaction terms. Although many nuclei have spins other than 1/2, and even the proton with spin 1 /2 has an anomalous magnetic moment which does not fit the simple Dirac theory, the approach outlined here is fully endorsed by quantum electrodynamics provided that only terms involving M l are retained (see equation (4.23)). The interested reader is referred to Bethe and Salpeter [11] for further details. In our present application we see that the expressions for both...
