Abstract. The lifetimes of the 235 keV, 2-state and 350 keV, 4 + state in 44Sc have been measured via the 44Ca(p, n)44Sc reaction with a pulsed proton beam. The time integral perturbed angular distribution technique with an external field was used to measure the precession angles of the 2-and 4 + states populated by the 3~ pn7)44Sc reaction. The following values for the mean-lives and g-factors were obtained: r(2-)= 8.83(33)ns, g(2 )=0.30(13) and ~(4+)=4.52(27)ns, g(4+)=0.90(12). The results for the 2 state support a rotational description of the negative parity states in 44Sc. The magnetic moment of the 4 + state is compared to shell model predictions.
