OSTI ID:5475136
Nuclear spins and moments of /sup 9/Li and /sup 11/Li have been measured by optical pumping of a fast atomic beam. The angular asymmetry of the ..beta..-radiation from the polarized nuclei was used to detect the hfs of the 2s /sup 2/S/sub 1/2/--2p /sup 2/P/sub 1/2/ resonance line and the NMR signal in a LiF or LiNbO/sub 3/ crystal. The results I = 3/2 and ..mu../sub I/ = 3.6673(25) n.m. indicate a pure 1p/sub 3/2/ state of the valence proton of /sup 11/Li. A first preliminary result for the ratio of quadrupole moments is extracted from the NMR to be Q(/sup 9/Li)/Q(/sup 8/Li) = 0.88(3).
