Abstract

It is shown that the strengths of M1 γ transitions with no change of isotopic spin in self-conjugate nuclei may be expected to be smaller by a factor 100 than the normal M1 strengths; the reason is that the matrix element for the particular M1 transitions mentioned above is considerably reduced owing to an almost complete cancellation of the protonic, neutronic, and orbital magnetic moments.

A number of experimental confirmations of the above rule are discussed in Sec. 2
