Abstract he parametrized relativistic quantum mechanics of Stueckelberg [Helv. Phys. Acta
15, 23 (1942)] represents time as an operator, and has been shown elsewhere to yield the recently
observed phenomena of quantum interference in time, quantum diffraction in time and quantum
entanglement in time. The Stueckelberg wave equation as extended to a spin–1/2 particle by
Horwitz and Arshansky [J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 15, L659 (1982)] is shown here to yield the
electron g-factor g = 2 (1 + α/2π), to leading order in the renormalized fine structure constant α, in agreement with the quantum electrodynamics of Schwinger [Phys. Rev., 73, 416L (1948)].
