Bargmann-Michel-Telegdi equation and one-particle relativistic approach

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento B (1971-1996)

Summary

A re-examination of the semiclassical approach of the relativistic electron indicates a possible variation of its helicity for electric and magnetic static fields applied along its global motion due to zitterbewegung effects, proportional to the anomalous part of the magnetic moment.
