There are a number of Models - a description of models that look to describe the location and behavior of some physical object or electrons in atoms. It is important to know this information, as behavior in nature. Models it helps chemists to make statements and predictions about are often mathematical, describing the behavior of how atoms will react with other atoms to form molecules. The some event. model one chooses will oftentimes influence the types of statements one can make about the behavior – that is, the reactivity – of an atom or group of atoms. Bohr model - states that no One model, the Bohr model, describes electrons as small two electrons in an atom can billiard balls, rotating around the positively charged nucleus, have the same set of four much in the way that planets quantum numbers. orbit around the Sun.

Some topics may be unclear. These notes are only meant to be a study aid and a supplement to your own notes. Please report any inaccuracies to the professor. Magnetism Is ubiquitous in every-day life! • Refrigerator magnets (who could live without them?) • Coils that deflect the electron beam in a CRT television or monitor • Cassette tape storage (audio or digital) • Computer disk drive storage • Electromagnet for Magnetic Resonant Imaging (MRI) Magnetic Field Magnets contain two poles: “north” and “south”. The force between like-poles repels (north-north, south-south), while opposite poles attract (north-south). This is reminiscent of the electric force between two charged objects (which can have positive or negative charge). Recall that the electric field was invoked to explain the “action at a distance” effect of the electric force, and was defined by: F E = qel where qel is electric charge of a positive test charge and F is the force acting on it. We might be tempted to define the same for the magnetic field, and write: F B = qmag where qmag is the “magnetic charge” of a positive test charge and F is the force acting on it. However, such a single magnetic charge, a “magnetic monopole,” has never been observed experimentally! You cannot break a bar magnet in half to get just a north pole or a south pole. As far as we know, no such single magnetic charges exist in the universe, D. -
The Magnetic Moment of a Bar Magnet and the Horizontal Component of the Earth’S Magnetic Field
260 16-1 EXPERIMENT 16 THE MAGNETIC MOMENT OF A BAR MAGNET AND THE HORIZONTAL COMPONENT OF THE EARTH’S MAGNETIC FIELD I. THEORY The purpose of this experiment is to measure the magnetic moment μ of a bar magnet and the horizontal component BE of the earth's magnetic field. Since there are two unknown quantities, μ and BE, we need two independent equations containing the two unknowns. We will carry out two separate procedures: The first procedure will yield the ratio of the two unknowns; the second will yield the product. We will then solve the two equations simultaneously. The pole strength of a bar magnet may be determined by measuring the force F exerted on one pole of the magnet by an external magnetic field B0. The pole strength is then defined by p = F/B0 Note the similarity between this equation and q = F/E for electric charges. In Experiment 3 we learned that the magnitude of the magnetic field, B, due to a single magnetic pole varies as the inverse square of the distance from the pole. k′ p B = r 2 in which k' is defined to be 10-7 N/A2. Consider a bar magnet with poles a distance 2x apart. Consider also a point P, located a distance r from the center of the magnet, along a straight line which passes from the center of the magnet through the North pole. Assume that r is much larger than x. The resultant magnetic field Bm at P due to the magnet is the vector sum of a field BN directed away from the North pole, and a field BS directed toward the South pole. -
PH585: Magnetic Dipoles and So Forth
PH585: Magnetic dipoles and so forth 1 Magnetic Moments Magnetic moments ~µ are analogous to dipole moments ~p in electrostatics. There are two sorts of magnetic dipoles we will consider: a dipole consisting of two magnetic charges p separated by a distance d (a true dipole), and a current loop of area A (an approximate dipole). N p d -p I S Figure 1: (left) A magnetic dipole, consisting of two magnetic charges p separated by a distance d. The dipole moment is |~µ| = pd. (right) An approximate magnetic dipole, consisting of a loop with current I and area A. The dipole moment is |~µ| = IA. In the case of two separated magnetic charges, the dipole moment is trivially calculated by comparison with an electric dipole – substitute ~µ for ~p and p for q.i In the case of the current loop, a bit more work is required to find the moment. We will come to this shortly, for now we just quote the result ~µ=IA nˆ, where nˆ is a unit vector normal to the surface of the loop. 2 An Electrostatics Refresher In order to appreciate the magnetic dipole, we should remind ourselves first how one arrives at the field for an electric dipole. Recall Maxwell’s first equation (in the absence of polarization density): ρ ∇~ · E~ = (1) r0 If we assume that the fields are static, we can also write: ∂B~ ∇~ × E~ = − (2) ∂t This means, as you discovered in your last homework, that E~ can be written as the gradient of a scalar function ϕ, the electric potential: E~ = −∇~ ϕ (3) This lets us rewrite Eq. -

New Measurements of the Electron Magnetic Moment and the Fine Structure Constant
S´eminaire Poincar´eXI (2007) 109 – 146 S´eminaire Poincar´e Probing a Single Isolated Electron: New Measurements of the Electron Magnetic Moment and the Fine Structure Constant Gerald Gabrielse Leverett Professor of Physics Harvard University Cambridge, MA 02138 1 Introduction For these measurements one electron is suspended for months at a time within a cylindrical Penning trap [1], a device that was invented long ago just for this purpose. The cylindrical Penning trap provides an electrostatic quadrupole potential for trapping and detecting a single electron [2]. At the same time, it provides a right, circular microwave cavity that controls the radiation field and density of states for the electron’s cyclotron motion [3]. Quantum jumps between Fock states of the one-electron cyclotron oscillator reveal the quantum limit of a cyclotron [4]. With a surrounding cavity inhibiting synchrotron radiation 140-fold, the jumps show as long as a 13 s Fock state lifetime, and a cyclotron in thermal equilibrium with 1.6 to 4.2 K blackbody photons. These disappear by 80 mK, a temperature 50 times lower than previously achieved with an isolated elementary particle. The cyclotron stays in its ground state until a resonant photon is injected. A quantum cyclotron offers a new route to measuring the electron magnetic moment and the fine structure constant. The use of electronic feedback is a key element in working with the one-electron quantum cyclotron. A one-electron oscillator is cooled from 5.2 K to 850 mK us- ing electronic feedback [5]. Novel quantum jump thermometry reveals a Boltzmann distribution of oscillator energies and directly measures the corresponding temper- ature. -
1 Introduction 2 Spins As Quantized Magnetic Moments
Spin 1 Introduction For the past few weeks you have been learning about the mathematical and algorithmic background of quantum computation. Over the course of the next couple of lectures, we'll discuss the physics of making measurements and performing qubit operations in an actual system. In particular we consider nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Before we get there, though, we'll discuss a very famous experiment by Stern and Gerlach. 2 Spins as quantized magnetic moments The quantum two level system is, in many ways, the simplest quantum system that displays interesting behavior (this is a very subjective statement!). Before diving into the physics of two-level systems, a little on the history of the canonical example: electron spin. In 1921, Stern proposed an experiment to distinguish between Larmor's classical theory of the atom and Sommerfeld's quantum theory. Each theory predicted that the atom should have a magnetic moment (i.e., it should act like a small bar magnet). However, Larmor predicted that this magnetic moment could be oriented along any direction in space, while Sommerfeld (with help from Bohr) predicted that the orientation could only be in one of two directions (in this case, aligned or anti-aligned with a magnetic field). Stern's idea was to use the fact that magnetic moments experience a linear force when placed in a magnetic field gradient. To see this, not that the potential energy of a magnetic dipole in a magnetic field is given by: U = −~µ · B~ Here, ~µ is the vector indicating the magnitude and direction of the magnetic moment. -
Spin the Evidence of Intrinsic Angular Momentum Or Spin and Its
Spin The evidence of intrinsic angular momentum or spin and its associated magnetic moment came through experiments by Stern and Gerlach and works of Goudsmit and Uhlenbeck. The spin is called intrinsic since, unlike orbital angular momentum which is extrinsic, it is carried by point particle in addition to its orbital angular momentum and has nothing to do with motion in space. The magnetic moment ~µ of silver atom was measured in 1922 experiment by Stern and Gerlach and its projection µz in the direction of magnetic fieldz ^ B (through which the silver beam was passed) was found to be just −|~µj and +j~µj instead of continuously varying between these two as limits. Classically, magnetic moment is proportional to the angular momentum (12) and, assuming this proportionality to survive in quantum mechanics, quan- tization of magnetic moment leads to quantization of corresponding angular momentum S, which we called spin, q q µ = g S ) µ = g ~ m (57) z 2m z z 2m s as is the case with orbital angular momentum, where the ratio q=2m is called Bohr mag- neton, µb and g is known as Lande-g factor or gyromagnetic factor. The g-factor is 1 for orbital angular momentum and hence corresponding magnetic moment is l µb (where l is integer orbital angular momentum quantum number). A surprising feature here is that spin magnetic moment is also µb instead of µb=2 as one would naively expect. So it turns out g = 2 for spin { an effect that can only be understood if linearization of Schr¨odinger equation is attempted i.e.
