Abstract

In the fragmentation of 500 MeV/u46Ti the spin alignment of43mSc (I=19/2, T1/2=473 ns) fragments was observed by the Time Dependent Perturbed Angular Distribution (TDPAD) method. The measurement was performed for different cuts in the longitudinal momentum distribution. A positive spin alignment of about 35% was observed in the center and a negative alignment of about 15% in the wing of the distribution. For the different cuts the relative production of the 19/2 state was measured. In the wing of the distribution the isomeric ratio N(19/2)/total43Sc is about 15 times larger than in the center. The results of this pilot experiment are discussed in the frame of a shell-model.
