Abstract

Chapter I

Introduction

The probability that a radioactive nucleus will emit a gama ray may depend on the angle between the nuclear spin axis and the direction of emission. The radiation pattern of a sample of randomly oriented nuclei is isotropic. An anisotropic pattern may be observed if the nuclear spin axes are aligned.
