Terminology for Reduced Gyromagnetic Ratio

The term reduced gyromagnetic ratio was invented by $\mathsf{Pr} \infty \mathsf{fWiki}$ as there appears to be no such term in common use.

As such, it is not generally expected to be seen in this context outside $\mathsf{Pr} \infty \mathsf{fWiki}$.

It is deliberately intended for this naming convention to follow the precedent of:

the reduced Planck constant, which is Planck's constant divided by $2 \pi$.
the reduced Compton wavelength, which is the Compton wavelength divided by $2 \pi$.
