Abstract

Transient field precessions of the 6.13 MeV16O(3-) state have been measured in polarized Fe and Ni in order to corroborate our earlier results on C ions. It is found that precessions in Fe and Ni scale with the polarized electron density of the host at vion = 3.0 v0 and are comparable at vion = 1.5 v0. The latter is attributed to direct K-shell polarization of the ion by spin dependent electron promotion via molecular orbitals.
