The magnetic field associated with the dense pinch in a plasma focus device has been measured from the Zeeman splitting of the Cv, 2s-2p emission. Values of the order of 1 MG are derived, in agreement with pressure balance between the self-field due to currents in the pinch and the kinetic pressure of the plasma.
