A Perturbed Angular Correlation Study of Hafnium

Lutetium 177 ions were implanted in iron and nickel foils using a mass separator. The rotations of the angular correlation pattern caused by the hyperfine fields acting on the implanted nuclei were measured for the 71-250 keV and the 208-113 keV cascades in the beta-decay product Hafnium 177. Using measured data, the g-factor for the 250 keV spin 11/2, second excited state in Hf177 was determined, as were the internal fields acting on the Hf177 impurity in iron and nickel.
The results are as follows:
g11/2 = 0.277 ± 0.080 HFe(int) = -133 ± 7 k0e HNi(int) = -58.6 ± 8 k0e / Thesis / Master of Science (MSc)
