Zeeman Effect
Definition
The splitting of a spectral line into number of component of lines with the application of magnetic field is called Zeeman Effect.
Experiment Arrangement of Zeeman Effect
Consider a source of light ray sodium lamp placed between two poles piece A&B of a strong electromagnet. The modified light may be observed by high resolving instrument & and they analyzed by Nicol prism. The light can be observed both perpendicular and parallel to the direction of applied field B. To observed light parallel to the field a hole is drilled into the pole piece A &B of electromagnet.
Types of Zeeman Effect
- Normal Zeeman Effect
- Anomalous Zeeman effect
