Abstract

The nuclear gyromagnetic ratios of the first excited [...] states in [...], [...] and [...] have been measured to be [...], [...] and [...] respectively. The perturbed gamma-gamma angular correlation method was used. The large experimentally known hyperfine fields present at the positions of the nuclei of substitutional impurity atoms in an iron lattice were used to obtain mean angles of precession large enough to be measured. The experimental results are compared with theory, and with the results of Coulomb excitation implantation measurements. In each instance the agreement is poor.
