Abstract
LC-experiments in forward scattering and selective reflection are mostly performed in a longitudinal magnetic field. We have extended the investigations to a transverse field receiving the following results. The zerofield level- and line-crossing shows a different shape. From the line-crossing the isotope shift between Hg 200 and 202 was determined and the applicability of this method discussed. A narrowing of the width of the level-crossing in selective reflection was observed at low pressure.
