The experiment demonstrating it was suggested by Hendrik Lorentz and had already failed for Faraday.
The experiment demonstrating it was suggested by Hendrik Lorentz and had already failed for Faraday. Light seen in the experiment was similar to sunspots, showing those objects to be intensely magnetic. Showing that electrons are affected by a magnetic field, it proved light and magnetism are connected and helped determine that atoms are composed of charged particles. For ten points, name this physical effect which prompted the discovery that tripling of spectral lines was caused by the altering of electron spins.
