Spectrograms of manganese made a t the Massachusetts In stitute of Technology with fi elds in excess of 84,000 oersteds show many Jines that exhibi t various degrees of di stortion in both the posi ti ons and the intensities of the magnetic components.The in terpretation of these asymmetric patterns has bee n made by t he approximate theory of t he partial Paschen-Back effect.The g-values that have been derived fo r several energy levels of Mn I are found to con form , in most cases, with t ho e req uired for LS-co upling.A few excep t ion s to t his rule have been considered in so me detail.General tables have been computed , which will permit explanation of th e distortions in other spectra.
