Hi, I have posted this doubt in other forums and people don't know the answer. (sorry if my English is not very good!)
Let's see: to obtain the operator for the magnetic moment component of a particle, we have to apply a few factors to the spin operator, and one of them, the so-called 'gyromagnetic ratio' can be positive or negative depending on the particle, for example it is positive for protons and negative for neutrons.
Does this sign have any observable effect?
Thanks in advance,
(Maybe this should be in the nuclear and particle sub-forum?)
