The nuclear magnetic moment of "Ir and the directional distribution of gamma rays in "Os
Angular distributions of gamma transitions between levels in I9OOs fed in the decay of I9'Ir aligned in a rhenium single crystal have been measured at temperatures down to 2 mK. Multipole mixing ratios in both gamma and electron-capture transitions are deduced and compared with various nuclear models. The angular distribution coefficients are applied to interpret very small anisotropies observed when I9'Ir is polarised in an iron host matrix, cooled to 2.5 mK. The deduced magnetic dipole moment of the 4 + ground state of I9'Ir is Ip(I9'Ir; GS)~ = 0.04( l)pN. Possible single-particle descriptions compatible with this result are suggested. NUCLEAR MOMENTS: I9'Ir (from Re(a, n)): measured I,(@ from oriented nuclei in single crystal Re and polycrystalline Fe: deduced I9OOs S(E2/M1), Jp in electron capture, lpl(1901r ground state).
A mini transmissionγ-ray Compton polarimeter and measurements of the sign of magnetic moments of radioactive nuclei
A mini transmissionγ-ray Compton polarimeter was developed for the measurement of the sign of magnetic moments of radioactive nuclei with low-temperature nuclear orientation. The signs of the magnetic moments of the following isotopes were determined:193Os [μ=+0.7297(16)μN];191mIr [μ=+6.20(9)μN];192Ir [μ=+1.924(10)μN];194Ir [μ=+0.39(1)μN];195mPt [μ=−0.605(15)μN].
A slowly rotating coil system for AC field measurements of Fermilab Booster correctors
A method for measurement of rapidly changing magnetic fields has been developed and applied to the testing of new room temperature corrector packages designed for the Fermilab Booster Synchrotron. The method is based on fast digitization of a slowly rotating tangential coil probe, with analysis combining the measured coil voltages across a set of successive magnet current cycles. This paper presents results on the field quality measured for the normal and skew dipole, quadrupole, and sextupole elements in several of these corrector packages.
