Salient features of transient magnetic fields are brought out from nuclear spin precession measurements on light ions penetrating polarized Fe-, Ni-and Gd-hosts. At low velocities ion fractions with single K-shell vacancies, at high velocities H-like charge state fractions, can account for the observed precessions. The data suggest a sharp reduction of the K-shell field at a velocity Vion~--0.5VO . Large degrees of K-shell polarization have been derived for C-and O-ions. Measurements in different ferromagnets show that the transient fields scale with the polarized electron density of the host.
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.
