Abstract

We present the known theoretical contributions to the gJ factor of an electron bound in hydrogen like carbon. In particular we outline the calculation scheme for the quantum electrodynamical (QED) corrections of order (απ) and present their current theoretical uncertainties. The known terms of the (Zα) expansion are found to be insufficient to describe the current experimental data.
