Abstract
A detailed description is presented of an optical-pumping charge-exchange method for establishing and observing nuclear-spin orientation in atomic ions having a $^{1}S_{0}$ electronic configuration. ${\mathrm{Rb}}^{+}$, ${\mathrm{Cs}}^{+}$, ${\mathrm{K}}^{+}$, and free protons have been studied thus far. Various applications of the method include precision measurements of the nuclear moments in the ions and the first measurements of resonant charge-exchange cross sections at thermal energies.
