Abstract
The electric quadrupole interaction of Ir-188 (I-pi = 1(-);T-1/2 = 41. 5 h) in a Fe single crystal was measured for magnetization parallel to the crystallographic [100], [110], and [111] axes. Contrary to all pr evious experiments, a strong dependence of the electric field gradient on the direction of the magnetization with respect to the crystallogr aphic axes was observed for the first time.
