Scientific paper

RECENTLY, A. Ellett (NATURE, December 27, 1924, p. 931) and W. Hanle (Zs. f. Phys., 30, 93, 1924) observed the depolarising effect of a weak magnetic field on resonance radiation. When the intensity of the field was sufficiently small they found, not only partial depolarisation, but also a rotation of the plane of polarisation. This is accounted for, on the classical point of view, by the superposed effect of the Larmor rotation and of the damped vibrations of the oscillator.
