Abstract

It is shown that core polarization by the nuclear pion field has opposite effects on the M1 form factors of 12C(15.11) MeV) and 13C(g.s). New data on 13C are found to agree with this prediction and a commin interpretationof the experiments is shown to be possible for the nuclei in terms of critical opalescence. Discrimination from alternative explanations of the observed anomalies should await further experiments, especially photopion reasctions.
