Abstract. Using the atomic beam magnetic resonance method, the five hyperfine structure separations in the 4f 3 6s 2 419. 2 ground state of 141 _ 59P1 have been measured. The results are:6477.913423 (17) 6 5 5556.359848 (6) 5 4 4633.023306 (2) 4 3 3708.201146 (5) 3 2 2782.190601 (15) From these quantities, the multipole interaction constants Ak, k = 1, 2, 3, 4 between the nucleus and the electron shell have been calculated. A 4 especially then served to give the following limit for the intrinsic hexadecapole moment: IQ4ol <0.4eb 2. Furthermore, the gs-factors of the 41 multiplet have been measured at magnetic fields of 300 Oe. The results are: gj(419.2) =0.731 037 1(15) gj(4Ii1~2) =0.965 1476 (20) gj(41132) = 1.106 319 7(40) gj(d'I152)= 1.197963 (30) Small corrections due to perturbations by neighbouring fine structure levels are included.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
