Abstract
The Zeeman effect has been observed in the optical spectra of ions in different sites in Ca. All but one of the correlations between ESR and optical spectra, reported by Kirton and McLaughlan, have been checked and confirmed, and the upper-state values have been determined. Ambiguity in the interpretation of the rhombic spectra has been eliminated, and we have shown with 90% confidence that the upper-state splitting of in cubic sites is greater than 18.3 .
