Abstract
There are many interactions in a uniform high magnetic field for a hydrogen atom. When the B~2 proportional term in the Hamiltonian of the hydrogen atom is considered and according to the perturbation theory in degenerate state and properties of spherical harmonics function and angular momentum, a calculated method of energy level fine structure for hydrogen atom in a high magnetic field is derived. In accordance with this method, energy levels of the hydrogen atom in n=2 state is calculated.
