Nevertheless, the results of different experiments suggest that, besides the most populated site for the Ta-probe atom used in Perturbed Angular Correlation (PAC) spectroscopy, there should be other low populated sites which in general are not extensively analyzed. In this work, we study different charge estates for the impurity-probe atom leading to different solutions to the electronic wave function. Between these, the neutral cell calculation results in a static EFG compatible with the low populated site mentioned above. This solution results in a magnetic cell with a magnetic moment close to 1 Bohr magneton.
