Time-differential angular-correlation measurements on the 1408–122 keV cascade of 152Sm were performed in liquid EuCl3 and Eu(NO3)3 sources at a time resolution of 450 ps. The results obtained are λ2 = (8.3 ± 2.0) × 107 s−1, A2(0) = 0.218 ± 0.008 in SmCl3 and λ2 = (2.5 ± 2.1) × 107 s−1, A2(0) = 0.206 ± 0.018 in Sm(NO3)3. Integral angular-correlation measurements on the 244–122, 964–122, and 1112–122 keV cascades were also performed in the same chloride and nitrate sources using a NaI(Tl)–HPGe system. Using the values of λ2, the unperturbed angular-correlation coefficients for these cascades are determined and therefrom the mixing ratio of the λ transitions are found to be δ(1408) = 0.05 ± 0.01, [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. The magnetic moment of the 122 keV 2+ level was remeasured and a value of μ = 0.80 ± 0.06 nm was obtained.
