When H ′Z ≈ H ′fs , we must apply degenerate perturbation theory withH ′ = H ′Z + H ′fs . Consider the n = 2 case with l = 0, 1 and taking stateswith quantum numbers l , j , and mj (instead of l , ml , s, and ms), we usethe Clebsch-Gordan coefficients to obtain 8 eigenstates

Intermediate-field Zeeman effect

When H ′Z ≈ H ′fs , we must apply degenerate perturbation theory withH ′ = H ′Z + H ′fs . Consider the n = 2 case with l = 0, 1 and taking stateswith quantum numbers l , j , and mj (instead of l , ml , s, and ms), we usethe Clebsch-Gordan coefficients to obtain 8 eigenstates
