Single crystals of sodium nitrite were irradiated with Co⁶⁰ gamma rays at 77 deg K and studied by the paramagnetic resonance method. An anisotropic three-line hyperfine spectrum associated with a single paramagnetic species was observed. The hyperfine structure arises from a nitrogen nucleus in the paramagnetic species at a position of mm point symmetry. The principal values of the g ten sor and the hyperfine tensor were deduced as well as the directions of their principal axes. The paramagnetic species is believed to be NO₂. (auth)
