Nuclear spins and magnetic moments of some neutron-deficient rubidium isotopes

Abstract The nuclear spins and magnetic moments of some neutron-deficient rubidium isotopes have been measured by atomic-beam magnetic resonance techniques at the ISOLDE facility, CERN. The following results have been obtained: 77 Rb, I = 3 2 , μ I = 0.652(7) n.m. ; 78 Rb, I = 0; 78m Rb,I = 4, μ I = 2.56(3)(rmn.m.); (su79) Rb , I = 5 2 , ifμ I = 3.364(4) n.m. , and 84 m Rb , I = 6 .The data on the The data on the light rubidium isotopes gives evidence for deformed nuclear shapes
