Description

The angular precessions of the lowest (5/2)+ and (7/2)+ states in 197Au have been measured employing the transient field method. The 197Au nuclei, Coulomb-excited by a 180 MeV 63Cu beam, traversed the Gd foil with velocities between 5v0 and 2v0 (v0 = c/137). We have obtained the values g((5/2)+) = 0.21(2) and g((7/2)+) = 0.15(2), which are consistent with the predictions of the particle-core weak-coupling model. The field has been calibrated with the Chalk River parametrization, which has been checked using the known g factors of the lowest 2+ states in 184W, 186W, 194Pt, and 196Pt as probes
