Abstract

The molecular Zeeman effect was observed in H2CO using a molecular beam maser in a high magnetic field. ΔM=0 or ΔM=±1 transitions were observed by using TE or TM mode cavities. The resolution was 5 kHz and magnetic fields up to 17 kG were used. The l10l11 transition was studied. The magnetic susceptibilities were accurately measured and values for the molecular quadrupole moments and other quantities were determined from these measurements.
