Abstract

The g factor of the 21+ state in 13252Te, E (21+) = 0.9739   MeV, τ = 2.6   ps, was measured by the transient field technique applied to a radioactive beam. The development of an experimental approach necessary for work in radioactive beam environments is described. The result g = 0.28 (15) agrees with the previous measurement by the recoil-in-vacuum technique, but here the sign of the g factor is measured as well.
