Question 100 - (a) Time evolution in Heisenberg picture, according to Ehrenfest theorem is m (d / dt) < r > = < p >, where m = mass, r = position, p = momentum of a particle. If v = velocity, prove that m < v > = < p >. (b) Lande g-factor is given by Gj = Gl [ J (J + 1) - S (S + 1) + L (L + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ] + Gs [ J (J + 1) + S (S + 1) - L (L + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ]. If Gl = 1 and under approximation of Gs = 2, prove by calculation that Gj = (3/2) + [ S (S + 1) - L (L + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ].

Answer 100 - (a) Let (d / dt) < r > = < v >. Substitute it into m (d / dt) < r > = < p > so that m < v > = < p >, proven by momentum = mass x velocity. (b) Gj = Gl [ J (J + 1) - S (S + 1) + L (L + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ] + Gs [ J (J + 1) + S (S + 1) - L (L + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ]. When Gl = 1 and Gs = 2, Gj = [ J (J + 1) - S (S + 1) + L (L + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ] + 2 [ J (J + 1) + S (S + 1) - L (L + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ] = [ J (J + 1) + 2J (J + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ] + [ 2S (S + 1) - 2L (L + 1) - S (S + 1) + L (L + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ] = [ 3J (J + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ] + [ S (S + 1) - L (L + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ] = (3/2) + [ S (S + 1) - L (L + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ] (proven).
