This effect is a consequence of the noncommutativity of Lorentz transformations, and it can be  derived by noting that two successive Lorentz boosts in different directions are expressible as the  composition of a boost and a spatial rotation.

This effect can be obtained from the ful y covariant BMT  equation, and the existence of this effect provides an explanation for the observed spectrum in the  anomalous Zeemann effect. This kinematic effect arises when a component of acceleration exists  perpendicular to the electron's velocity vector, which occurs in atoms by virtue of Coulomb screening.  This effect's energy contribution reduces the magnitude of the spin-orbit interaction, yielding the correct  spin-orbit energy for atomic electrons. For 10 points, identify this relativistic effect, a motion of the  electron spin named after its discoverer.
