摘要
New Lande-gj factors of 35 energy levels of La I, found from investigations of 40 spectral lines in the Wavelength range 562.959/609.537 nm, were determined. As a source of free La atoms a hollow cathode discharge lamp was used. We monitored the signal of the optogalvanic effect appearing When a laser beam is passing through the hollow cathode. Spectra were recorded in the presence of a magnetic field of about 800 G produced by a permanent magnet, for two linear polarizations of the exciting laser light. Optogalvanic spectroscopy is a very sensitive method, so we were able to observe the Zeeman effect of very weak atomic lines. In this way we have determined for the first time the Lande-gj factors for 35 recently found levels of neutral La. The Lande gj- factors for several other levels were reinvestigated.
