Abstract
Induced nuclear spin polarization by hyperfine interaction following passage of 0.5 μA 300-keV beams of , , and through single tilted carbon foils yields , respectively. The nuclear polarizations were enhanced by passage through two tilted foils, and the sign of the polarization flipped by a simple flip of the foil direction with respect to the beam direction. From quantum-beat measurements with circularly polarized light, experimental quantum beat frequencies MHz for the unresolved 6578-6583 Å doublet in CII, and , MHz in NII are determined.
