We report on experiments dedicated to first measurements of magnetic moments of short-lived nuclear states of radioactive beams at the REX-ISOLDE facility. The ultimate goal is to determine g factors of ^132,134,136Te and ¹³⁸Xe isotopes based on intriguing shell model predictions [1]. Due to technical constraints a beam of ¹³⁸Xe was selected as a first case for determining the g factor of the 2₁⁺ state at 0.589 MeV and lifetime τ = 15 ps. Projectile Coulomb excitation in inverse kinematics was combined with transient fields in gadolinium. Two different targets were used with excitation layers of pure ⁵⁰Ti or natural Al on Gd with Cu backings. The de-excitation γ rays were detected by four modules of MINIBALL detectors in coincidence with forward scattered target ions registered in a four-fold Si detector array placed symmetric to the beam axis. A hole in the detector plate allowed to pass the emerging beam to a downstream Faraday cup. Experiences and results are discussed in detail. ⁺ supported by the BMBF and CERN [1] J.
