Abstract

The present status of γ-ray linear polarization measurements on oriented nuclei is discussed. The formalism used in the analysis of experimental data is summarized and complemented by formulae for γ-transitions with triple multipole mixing. A survey of the present technique of detection of γ-ray linear polarization, using Compton polarimeters, is given. Two important applications of γ-ray linear polarization measurements are briefly surveyed, namely, the measurement of theg-factors excited states and the investigation of time-reversal symmetry in atomic nuclei.
