Magnetic Moment of the Isomeric State of 75Cu Measured with a Highly Spin-aligned Beam

2020 
The magnetic moment of the isomeric state of the neutron-rich ^75Cu nucleus was measured using a highly spin-aligned beam produced via a two-step reaction scheme. In the experiment carried out at the BigRIPS at RIBF, we achieved to produce spin alignment reaching 30% by employing the one-proton removal from ^76Zn to produce ^75Cu. In the magnetic moment measurement, a method of time-differential perturbed angular distribution (TDPAD) was employed. Precession of the isomeric state with spin parity of 3/2^− was clearly observed with significance larger than 5σ in the TDPAD spectrum. The magnetic moment of the isomeric state of ^75Cu was determined to be μ = 1.40(6)μ_N.
