Gyromagnetic Ratio is defined by:

 \gamma = \frac{e}{2m_p}g = g \mu_\mathrm{N}/\hbar,

where e is the magnitude of electron charge, mp is the proton mass, μN is the nuclear magneton, and g is the g-factor of the nucleon or nucleus in question.

Approximate values for some common nuclei are given in the Table below.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref>

Nucleus γ / 2π (MHz/T)
1H 42.576
3He -32.434
7Li 16.546
13C 10.705
14N 3.0766
15N -4.3156
17O -5.7716
23Na 11.262
31P 17.235
129Xe -11.777
