Zeeman, Pieter Dutch physicist who discovered 1896 that when light from certain elements, such as sodium or lithium (when heated), is passed through a spectroscope in the presence of a strong magnetic field, the spectrum splits into a number of distinct lines. His discovery, known as the Zeeman effect, won him a share of the 1902 Nobel Prize for Physics with Hendrik Lorentz Zeeman was born in Zonnemaire, Zeeland, and studied under Lorentz at Leiden. He was professor at Amsterdam 1900-35, and from 1923 director of a new laboratory named the Zeeman Laboratory. Lorentz proposed that light is caused by the vibration of electrons and suggested that imposing a magnetic field on light would result in a splitting of spectral lines by varying the wavelengths of the lines. Using a sodium flare between the poles of a powerful electromagnet and producing spectra with a large concave diffraction grating, Zeeman was able to detect a broadening of the spectral lines when the current was activated. In 1897 he refined the experiment and was successful in resolving the broadening of the narrow blue-green spectral line of cadmium produced in a vacuum discharge into a triplet of three component lines. Zeeman's attention turned to the velocity of light in moving media and he was able to show that the results were in agreement with the theory of relativity.

Technology Pieter Zeeman Scientist: Pieter Zeeman Home Library Science Dictionary of Scientists Dutch physicist (1865–1943) Born at Zonnemair in the Netherlands, Zeeman studied at Leiden University and received a doctorate in 1893. This was for his work on the Kerr effect, which concerns the effect of a magnetic field on light. In 1896 he discovered another magnetooptical effect, which now bears his name – he observed that the spectral lines of certain elements are split into three lines when the sample is in a strong magnetic field perpendicular to the light path; if the field is parallel to the light path the lines split into two. This work was done before the development of quantum mechanics, and the effect was explained at the time using classical theory by Hendrik Antoon Lorentz , who assumed that the light was emitted by oscillating electrons. This effect (splitting into three or two lines) is called the normal Zeeman effect and it can be explained using Niels Bohr's theory of the atom. In general, most substances show an
