Abstract

The calculated field gradient in zinc metal with antishielding effects included by an ab initio procedure is shown, in conjunction with observed quadrupole-coupling data from Mössbauer and nuclear-quadrupole-resonance measurements, to give a quadrupole moment of 0.13 barns for zinc nuclear ground state, ${}^{67}{Zn}$ $\frac{5}{2^{+}}$ , in satisfactory agreement with the atomic beam value of 0.15±0.015 barns.
