SWhat changed
Reported magnetic-field broadening and splitting structure in emitted spectral lines.
Scientific scope
The record is Zeeman's sole-author 1897 Nature note. It does not absorb Lorentz's theoretical interpretation, later anomalous-effect work, all spectroscopy or precision claims beyond the reported observations.
