Abstract

On-line low temperature nuclear orientation (OLNO) experiments have been performed on the odd- A Te isotopes 131Te and 133Te using the technique of nuclear magnetic resonance on oriented nuclei (NMR/ON). The magnetic moments of the isomeric 11 2 − states have been measured extending the known data on these states in the Te isotopes up to the neutron shell closure at N = 82. The contribution to the 11 2 − magnetic moment in 133Te due to core polarisation is calculated using an RPA shell model as well as corrections to the magnetic dipole operator caused by mesonic exchange currents. The neutron number dependence of the magnetic moments of the 11 2 − isomers in heavy Te isotopes is discussed in terms of particle-core coupling model (PCM) calculations.
