Abstract

We have observed the photodetachment spectrum near the lowest detachment threshold from $S^{-}$ in a 1 T field. The spectroscopy shows a small degree of magnetic field structure of the type observed in similar experiments at the higher-energy threshold of the electron affinity. Furthermore, our results yield a measurement of the lowest detachment threshold energy.
