Nuclear Orientation ofSb124

The magnetic moment of ${}_{}{}^{124}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Sb}$ has been found to be $\pm (1.26\mathrm{}\pm 0.07){\mu }_N$ by observing the anisotropy of the 1691-keV $\gamma$ ray following the decay of oriented antimony nuclei. The results obtained from sources prepared by ion bombardment are in good agreement with those from a source prepared by diffusion. The observed anisotropy of the 2091-keV $\gamma$ ray is consistent with a pure Gamow-Teller $\beta$ feed and an $E1\mathrm{}$ $\gamma$ transition.
