The magnetic dipole moment and the electric quadrupole moment are the nuclear moments that provide us with key information about the proton and neutron configurations in a nucleus and the shape of a nucleus, respectively. In the study of nuclear structure through the measurement of the nuclear moments, a technique to produce spin orientation of rare-isotope beams has played important roles. Recently, a scheme of the two-step projectile fragmentation was developed to produce high spin alignment in RI beams and was applied to the frontier of the study for nuclear structure of neutron-rich nuclei, such as 75 Cu and 99 Zr. The recent activities of the nuclear-moment measurements using highly spin-aligned beams at RIKEN RIBF are reported. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
