Measured gyromagnetic ratios and the low-excitation spectroscopy of ¹⁹⁷Au

Abstract

Transient-field precessions were measured for levels in 197Au and 182,184,186W as their ions simultaneously traversed polarized Gd hosts. Gyromagnetic ratios were inferred for the positiveparity levels between, and including, the lowest 5 2+ and 11 2+ states in 197Au. Lifetimes of several levels were determined using the Doppler-broadened lineshape technique, and multipole mixing ratios of a number of transitions were deduced from measured particle-γ-ray angular correlations. The measured static and dynamic electromagnetic moments are compared with the predictions of the weak-coupling core-excitation model and with those of the interacting boson-fermion model (IBFM), including its Spin(6) supersymmetry limit.
