Abstract
The first 2(+)-state of Cr-52 was used to measure the transient magnet ic field and the transient electric field gradient in Gd at ion veloci ties close to the Is-electron Bohr velocity employing Coulomb excitati on to a Cr-52 ion beam of 14.5 A MeV energy. The transient magnetic fi eld value obtained, B-TF = 1.00(38) kTesla, implies a degree of polari zation p(1s) = 0.05(2) which fairly agrees with the expected 1/Z-depen dence. The magnitude of the transient electric field gradient deduced is of the order of 10(21) V/cm(2).
