title: Optical Zeeman spectroscopy of the [17.6]2-X3Δ1(1,0) band system of tungsten monocarbide, WC.
abstract: The Zeeman effect in the [17.6]2-X(3)Δ(1)(1,0) band system of tungsten monocarbide, WC, has been recorded and analyzed. Magnetic tuning of the spectral features recorded at high resolution (full width at half maximum ≅ 35 MHz) and at field strengths of 1101 and 2230 G are accurately modeled using an effective Zeeman Hamiltonian. The observed spectra were fit to produce g(el)-factors for the X(3)Δ(1)(υ = 0) and [17.6]2(υ = 1) states. The observed g(el)-factors are discussed in terms of the proposed electronic state distribution.
