Abstract

It is shown that the values of magnetic moments of odd mass nuclei given by the model of independent particles moving in a spheroidal potential well, deviate from the measured values in a systematic way. The sense of this deviation is such that the calculated values lie between the measured values and strong coupling limits. This behaviour can be understood in terms of a polarization of the core of paired nucleons by virtue of their interaction with the odd nucleon; it is found that this mechanism gives a satisfactory account of the ground state moments of Lu175 and of Ta181.
