Anomalous magnetic moment of electron

introduction

• amplitude = sum of integrals = \(\sum_{n\text{ loops}}\) sum of integrals
• anomalous electron magnetic dipole moment 1.00115965219
• theoretical computation matches 11 digits with experiments
• as n grows, number of Feynman diagrams grows exponentially
• integrals are becoming difficult

 

 

classical magnetic moment

• read spin system first
• gyromagnetic ratio is defined as "magnetic dipole moment"/"angular momentum"
  \(\gamma = \mu/L=-e/2m_e\)

anamalous electron magnetic dipole moment

• In Dirac’s theory a point like spin 1/2 object of electric charge q and mass m has a magnetic moment\[\mathbf{\mu}=q\mathbf{S}/m\]
• so the Bohr magneton of the electron (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohr_magneton)  becomes
  \(\mu_\mathrm{B} = {{e \hbar} \over {2 m_\mathrm{e}}}\) since the spin of the electron is \(S=\frac{\hbar}{2}\)
  
• but in QED, there are correction terms to this
• actual spin magnetic moment of the electron involves the spin g-factor (gyromagnetic ratio)
  \(\vec{\mu}_S \ = g_e \mu_\mathrm{B} \frac{\vec{S}}{\hbar}=g\frac{e}{2 m_{e}} \ \vec{S}\)
  
• classical vs quantum

• The g factor sets the strength of an electron’s interaction with a magnetic field.
• In classical physics (left) magnetic lines of force (perpendicular to the page) induce a curvature in the electron’s path.
• In quantum electrodynamics (right) the electron interacts with the field by emitting or absorbing a photon.
• The event is represented in a Feynman diagram, where space extends along the horizontal axis and time moves up the vertical axis.
• \(g/2=1+c_1\frac{\alpha}{2\pi}+c_2(\frac{\alpha}{2\pi})^2+c_3(\frac{\alpha}{2\pi})^3+\cdots=1.00115965219+\cdots\)
