Abstract

It is proposed that the Zeeman effect of the 2₀₂ → 1₁₁ transition in sulfur dioxide be used as a magnetic field calibration standard. The recent accurate beam maser measurements on this transition by Ellenbroek and Dymanus have been confirmed by electric resonance measurements in the 1₁₁ level. The Zeeman splittings most useful for calibration purposes depend linearly on the magnetic field. For perpendicular selection rules the Zeeman coefficient is 0.5282(3) MHz/kG while parallel transitions have a 0.3722(3) MHz/kG Zeeman coefficient. The sign of the rotational magnetic moment of SO₂ has been determined to be negative.
