The energy difference between the two levels arising from the spin-orbit coupling in a d-orbital is 0.6463 eV. Consider the splitting for one electron. Calculate the spin-orbit coupling constant in cm-1. please show all calculations.    What atom could that be? (Hint: calculate the spin-orbit coupling constant in Ry and look for a matching number in the last column that provides experimental values) constant : 1 eV = 1.60217646 × 10-19 J 1Ry = 2.1798741 × 10-18 J
Consider a system of electron spins S = 1/2 and g = 2 in a magnetic field of 1 T. Find the temperature at which the magnetization of the system reaches 90% of the saturation value. Repeat the calculation for solid helium-3 nuclear spins for which I = 1/2 and μ = 2.2 nuclear magnetons.
Suppose the alpha particle in a Rutherford scattering experiment is replaced with a proton of the same initial kinetic energy and also headed directly toward the nucleus of the gold atom. (a) Will the distance from the center of the nucleus at which the proton stops be greater than, less than, or the same as that of the alpha particle? (b) If, instead, we switch the target to a nucleus with a larger value of Z, is the stopping distance of the alpha particle greater than, less than, or the same as with the gold target?
