Find the minimum magnitude of the magnetic field induction `B` at which a spectral instrument with resolving power `lambda//delta lambda==1.0.10^(5)` is capable of resolving the components of the spectral line `lambda= 536 nm` caused by a transition between singlet terms. The observation line is at right angles to the magnetic field direction. |

Answer» From the previous problem, if the components are `lambda,lambda+-Delta lambda`, then `(lambda)/(Delta lambda)=(2pi ħc)/(mu_(B)B lambda)` For resolution `(lambda)/(Delta lambda)leR=(lambda)/(delta lambda)` of the instrument. Thus `(2 pi ħc)/(mu_(B)B lambda)leR or Bge(2pi ħc)/(mu_(B)lambdaR)` Hence the minimum megnetic induction is `B_(m in)=(2pi ħc)/(mu_(B)lambdaR)= 4kG= 0.4T` |
