The g factors of the 21+,31-, and 41+ states of 70Ge have been measured by the transient field technique. The measured value, g(41+)=+0.5(2) is in good agreement with the results of shell-model calculations within the full fp configuration space and with the nuclear g-factor systematics in this region. The measured g(41+) is consistent with the recently reported positive g(41+) value for 68Zn, the N=38 isotone of 70Ge. The determination of the logarithmic slope of the particle-γ angular correlations is discussed for two typical arrangements of transient field experiments.
