Tube Type: Low-pressure, narrow-bore gas discharge tube (Geissler tube configuration).
Fill Gas: High-purity Mercury or Neon vapor.
Geometry: Designed with a narrow viewing window to allow the light emission to be observed precisely along or across the axis of the applied magnetic field.
Required External Apparatus: Must be used in conjunction with a Powerful Electromagnet and a High-Resolution Spectrometer.
Zeeman Effect Demonstration: The primary apparatus for visually and photographically demonstrating the splitting of spectral lines, a cornerstone experiment in quantum mechanics and atomic physics.
High Purity Gas: Contains high-purity Mercury or Neon vapor, selected for their clear spectral signatures and large splitting factors, ensuring observable results even with moderately strong magnets.
High Luminosity: Engineered to provide intense, narrow spectral emission when energized, which is essential for successful resolution of the split lines by a spectrometer.
Compatibility: Specifically designed for insertion into the narrow gap between the pole pieces of a high-field laboratory electromagnet, allowing the light to pass through the magnetic field lines.
Educational Value: Offers an advanced practical method for students to measure the specific charge of the electron ($e/m$) or the Landé g-factor by analyzing the line separation distance.
