Measurement of the 138 Ba + 6s 2 S 1/2 −5d 2 D 5/2 clock transition frequency and D 5/2 Landè gJ factor are reported. The clock transition frequency ν Ba + = 170 126 432 449 333.93±(0.34)stat±(0.20)sys, is obtained with accuracy limited by the frequency calibration of the maser used as a reference oscillator. The Landé gJ -factor for the 5d 2 D 5/2 level is determined to be gD = 1.200 367 31(24), which is a 100-fold improvement on previous measurements. The g-factor measurements are corrected for an ac magnetic field from trap-drive-induced currents in the electrodes, and data taken over a range of magnetic fields underscores the importance of accounting for this systematic.
