Let J(R) and G(R) respectively denote the Jacobson and Brown-McCoy radicals of the ring R and recall that R = G(R) if and only if R can not be homomorphically mapped onto a simple ring with unity [1, p. 120].

In general one knows that J(R) ⊆ G(R) [1, p. 118], while there do exist rings R for which J(R) ≠ G(R) (see [1, p. 120]).
