Giant magnetic dipole analog excitations by the allowed muon capture in 1p- shell nuclei

Journal Article · · Phys. Lett., B, v. 45B, no. 4, pp. 309-312
The distributions of the allowed muon capture strengths in 1p-shell nuclei are shown to exhibit a tendency to concentrate in a few low-lying daughter states. These strong excitations are analogs of the giant magnetic dipole transitions, predicted by Kurath, and observed in inelastic electron scattering. Finally, similar excitations are expected in 1S radiative pion capture and low-energy charged pion photoproduction processes.
