What is the term for splitting of spectral lines of an atom under magnetic field influence?
Answer:
Zeemans effect
When an atom is exposed to a magnetic field, the splitting of spectral lines is known as the ΔZeeman effect or ΔZeeman splitting. This phenomenon occurs due to the interaction between the magnetic field and the atomic magnetic moment. The ΔZeeman effect plays a significant role in spectroscopy and is distinct from other listed effects.
