Abstract

The electric quadrupole coupling constants of the lowest excited 5/2 state in197Hg have been measured by the e-γ TDPAC method for the hosts Ti and Sn at room temperature and for Zn and Cd at various temperatures. The observed temperature dependences are approximately the same as those known for other impurities in the same host lattices. They are well described by a simpleT 3/2 relation.
