Definition of zeeman effect in English English dictionary

the splitting of single spectral lines into three (or more) in the presence of a magnetic field

The splitting of single spectral lines of an emission spectrum into three or more polarized components when the radiation source is in a magnetic field. Splitting of a spectral line (see spectrum) into two or more lines of different frequencies. The effect occurs when the light source is placed in a magnetic field. It has helped identify the energy levels in atoms; it also provides a means of studying atomic nuclei and electron paramagnetic resonance (see magnetic resonance) and is used in measuring the magnetic field of the Sun and other stars. It was discovered in 1896 by Pieter Zeeman (1865-1943); he shared the second Nobel Prize for Physics (1902) with Hendrik Antoon Lorentz, who had hypothesized that a magnetic field would affect the frequency of the light emitted

of spectral lines when the radiations emanate in a strong magnetic field, first observed in 1896 by P

The widening and duplication, triplication, etc

Zeeman, a Dutch physicist, and regarded as an important confirmation of the electromagnetic theory of light
