Scientific paper

We detected significant Zeeman splitting in the 1667 MHz OH megamaser
emission from four ultraluminous galaxies. These detections, in addition
to being the first extragalactic detection of the Zeeman effect in an
emission line, suggest that OH megamasers are excellent extragalactic
magnetometers.
