Large 4d spin magnetic moments with small spin fluctuation rates have been measured for isolated Rh impurities in paramagnetic dilute PdFe alloys using the time-differential perturbed-angular-correlation method. The Curie-Weiss-like local susceptibility reflects enhanced Rh moment stability with the small addition of Fe into the Pd host, indicated by a drastic reduction of the spin fluctuation temperature. We suggest that magnetism and moment stability of Rh in the PdFe system are mainly governed by an interatomic ferromagnetic exchange interaction between the Rh Ad and the Pd

The time differential perturbed angular distribution ͑TDPAD͒ technique has been utilized to measure the g factor of the 10 ϩ state of 132 Ba. The 132 Ba nucleus was produced in the reaction 124 Sn͑ 12 C,4n͒ 132 Ba using a pulsed carbon beam. The experimentally obtained value of the g factor ͑ϭϪ0.159Ϯ0.005͒ compares well with the theoretical estimate for the neutron character of the state.
