Abstract
In a recent letter to Nature, S. Tolansky1 has discussed the “negative nuclear spins” of nuclei containing an odd number N of neutrons and an even number Z of protons. Nuclei of this group may have both positive and negative magnetic moments (that is, Landé’s g-factor of these nuclei may be both positive and negative), whereas if N is even and Z odd, the magnetic moment is always positive.
