Paschen-Back effect

Paschen-Back effect
/pah"sheuhn bahk"/, Physics.
a splitting of spectral lines observed when the source of a radiation is subjected to a strong magnetic field, caused when the vectors associated with the spin and orbital angular momentum exhibit individual rather than common precession. Cf. Zeeman effect.
[1920-25; named after Friedrich Paschen (1865-1947) and Ernst Back (1881-1959), German physicists]
