Static Moments of Neutron-Rich Ground States and Isomers Produced by Projectile Fragmentation

New achievements in nuclear moment measurements on nuclei produced and spin-oriented in intermediate energy (50–80 MeV/u) projectile fragmentation reactions are presented. By combining different types of spin-orientation with different experimental techniques, we show that the magnetic dipole moments and electric quadrupole moments of exotic neutron rich nuclei in their ground state as well as in their excited isomeric states can be measured. A selection of recent experiments performed at the LISE spectrometer at GANIL (Caen, France) is described.
