- Some experiments require calibration of the equipment before the mea- surements can be made. Any random errors in the calibration will usually become Systematic errors in the experiment itself. To illustrate this effect, consider an exper- iment on the Zeeman effect, in which a magnetic field causes a tiny shift in the 4.27. frequency of light given out by an atom. This shift can be measured using a Fabry- Perot interferometer, which consists of two parallel reflecting surfaces a distance d apart (where d is typically a couple of millimeters). To use the interferometer, one must know the distance d; that is, one must calibrate the instrument by measuring d. A convenient way to make this measurement is to send light of an accurately known wavelength A through the interferometer, which produces a series of interfer- reference marks fringes wavelength is sent through a Fabry-Perot interferometer, it pro- Figure 4.3.
