Abstract
A precision plunger set-up was used to determine in time-differential measurements of hyperfine interactions the degree of polarization of 1 s- and 2s-electrons in H- and Li-like oxygen ions on their emergence f rom magnetized Ni- and Gd-layers into vacuum. In addition a time-integ ral measurement with Fe-layers served to obtain the polarization of 2s -electrons only. For all three ferromagnetic materials the degree of p olarization of 2s-electrons is found to be twice as large as for Is-el ectrons. The data are discussed in the context of transient magnetic f ields and their underlying polarization mechanism
