Abstract
A systematic study of the magnetic properties of deformed odd-neutron 137–145Ce isotopes using the microscopic quasiparticle phonon nuclear model (QPNM) has been presented. The QPNM includes residual spin–spin interaction in both isoscalar and isovector channels. The analysis shows that in the isoscalar channel contributions to the magnetic moment coming from the neutron and proton systems practically cancel out each other. On the other hand, in the isovector channel, the coherent contribution coming from the quasiparticle–phonon interactions leads to a spin polarization (core polarization), which is important for determination of the quenched spin gyromagnetic factors (gs). The quenched spin gyromagnetic factors so called [Formula: see text] have been found to range from [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text] in the odd-mass 137–145Ce isotopic chain, which is similar to its phenomenological value ([Formula: see text] between [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]). By taking into consideration the core polarization effects, the available experimental data are satisfactorily reproduced with an accuracy of 0.01μN–0.1μN.
