Split in the spectral lines of atoms and molecules when a magnetic field is applied.

Non-anomalous: number of splits matches predictions of the Schrodinger equation about the number of possible states with a given angular momentum. TODO does it make numerical predictions?

Explanation:

Anomalous: evidence of spin.
