Lorentz unit [′lȯr‚ens ‚yü·nət]

(spectroscopy)

A unit of reciprocal length used to measure the difference, in wave numbers, between a (zero field) spectrum line and its Zeeman components; equal toeH/4πmc², whereHis the magnetic field strength,cis the speed of light, andeandmare the charge and mass of the electron respectively (gaussian units).
