Rotating superfluid /sup 3/He-B is found to possess a new contribution to the NMR frequency shift, which changes sign on reversal of either the angular velocity of rotation or the magnetic field. For p = 29.3 bars this gyromagnetic effect shows a discontinuity in magnitude at the first-order phase-transition temperature T/T/sub c/ = 0.6, at which a change in the vortex core structure takes place. These observations support the conclusion that the vortex core possesses a spontaneous intrinsic magnetization.
