Abstract

The effect of atomic orientation produced in a tilted-foil geometry on the angular correlation of nuclear decay γ-rays is investigated. A quantum mechanical treatment is presented for the case of a known electronic ensemble. An approximate, phenomenological approach is suggested for heavy ions recoiling out of the target with a multi-electron complex environment. The utilization of this approach in hyperfine interaction experiments is discussed.
