Abstract

Zeeman effect of ³⁵Cl pure quadrupole resonance in a single crystal of mercuric chloride is experimentally studied and it is found that each of the two chemically inequivalent chlorines has two physically inequivalent sites in the lattice. A large asymmetry parameter is found for both the chlorines but the magnitudes are considerably different. Also, the orientation of the principal axes of the field gradient tensor with respect to the crystalline axes is determined. These results compare reasonably well with the corresponding theoretical values based on the point charge model.
