Abstract
A nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) spectrum of has been observed in a single crystal of using a beam of low-energy highly polarized radioactive . The resonances were detected by monitoring the -decay anisotropy as a function of a small audio frequency magnetic field. These results demonstrate that low energy nuclear spin polarized can be used as a sensitive probe of the local magnetic and electronic environment in nanostructures and ultrathin films in zero static applied magnetic field.
