Show affiliationsOn the basis of the authors' previously determined highly accurate numerical wavefunctions they investigate, in quantitative terms, the effect of spin-orbit coupling on low-lying states of the hydrogen atom in magnetic fields of arbitrary strength. They stress the point that, in spite of the expected minute corrections of Coulomb binding energies, spin-orbit coupling produces narrow anticrossings of levels having identical parity and projection mj of the total angular momentum. In this way they find the correlation diagram (between the low- and high-field quantum numbers) of the physically 'real' hydrogen atom to be quite different from that derived by Simola and Virtamo (1978) for the idealised non-relativistic hydrogen problem with infinite proton mass.
