Temperature dependence of the Knight shift for cadmium in palladium

The Knight shift and its temperature dependence for a Cd impurity in palladium metal were measured by means of DPAD- and DPAC-methods utilizing the well known 5/2⁺, 247-keV state in¹¹¹Cd. The shift at 80 K was found to be KS (CdPd, 80 K)=?0.8(2)%. The observed variation of the KS in the temperature range from 80 K up to 1400 K is 0.5%. For calibration purposes an accurate remeasurement of the magnetic moment of the 5/2⁺ state in¹¹¹Cd was necessary and yieldedμ(¹¹¹Cd, 5/2⁺, 247 keV)=?0.7697(20) n.m.
