The measurements of ground state g factors using projectile fragmentation and beta-NMR have been hampered by the fact that the induced fragment spin polarization cannot be accurately predicted. A systematic behavior in the spin polarization as a function of target, beam energy and incident beam angle has previously been demonstrated. A Monte Carlo code developed to predict the induced fragment spin polarization from projectile fragmentation reactions reproduces the gross features of the spin polarization as a function of fragment momentum. We have made improvements to this model to correctly account for the observed absence of spin polarization when the incident beam angle is 0°. We are currently working to include this polarization model in an intermediate-energy fragmentation code similar to that done for high-energy fragmentation.
