Measurements of g -Factor of Rotational Levels in 83 Y

The g-factors of the positive parity rotational levels up to spin I = 41/2+ in 83Y have been measured by a transient-magnetic-field ion implantation perturbed angular distribution method. The experimentally measured g-factors show the g9/2 proton alignment followed by the g9/2 neutron alignment. The measured g-factors are in good agreement with the results calculated by an empirical formula based on the cranking shell model.
