Measurements of the Zeeman splitting in systems with nuclear magnetic moments can be used to infer the shielded nuclear and the bound electron g-factors, as well as the zero-field hyperfine splitting [1]. We measured the Zeeman splitting of 9Be3+ and compare it to measurements on 9Be1+ [2] to test the theory of the diamagnetic shielding factor [3] on the parts per billion level. Additionally, we compare our measured zero-field splitting with the value obtained in 9Be1+ via the so-called hyperfine specific difference to cancel theoretically intractable nuclear structure contributions. Recent progress and the latest results will be presented.
