Cr51 NUCLEAR ORIENTATION IN A CERIUM MAGNESIUM NITRATE CRYSTAL,

Abstract

Cr-51 nuclei were aligned in Cr(3) ions intro duced into a slightly cloudy, spherical single crystal of cerium magnesium nitrate and magnet ically cooled to temperatures near absolute zero. Angular distribution and linear polarization data are interpretable on the basis of paramagnetic resonance information, if in addition the ps ence of intermediate state reorientation is accounted for by coefficients in the Legendre polynomial expansion of the radiation pattern ( ) 1 A sub 2 P sub 2 A sub 4 P sub 4. Results are contrasted with those of an earlier experiment, and compared with a theoretical treatment of reorientation by static, isotropic hfs coupling which yields in the hard-core limit at this temperature Q sub 2 0.61.
