0072915Rogers This experimental program, involving undergraduate studentparticipation as an integral component, investigates nuclearstructure through the measurement of ground and excited statemagnetic moments. A major goal of this program is betterunderstanding of the roles of single particle and collectivebehavior in determination of nuclear magnetism. Ground statemoments of beta-unstable nuclei are measured using the beta-NMR and beta-LMR techniques. The experiments are conducted primarily at NSCL (Michigan State University) and secondarily at GANIL in France, with colleagues from MSU and the University of Leuven, Belgium. Excited state moments of deformed nuclei in isotopic chains are measured using the Transient Field technique, and the experiments are conducted at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory with colleagues from Rutgers University. Participation of undergraduate students is a key element in thisexperimental program.
