Analogs of giant-dipole-resonance states have been excited in $sup 27$Mg via the $sup 27$Al(n,p)$sup 27$Mg reaction using 56.1-MeV neutrons. This reaction is restricted to $delta$T=1 transitions and thus provides a unique way of studying the T/sub greater-than/ components of the giant dipole resonances. A comparison with photonuclear and (p,p') spectra is made in an attempt to separate T/sub greater-than/ from T/sub less-than/ components and E1 from the overlapping E2 isoscalar resonances. (AIP)
