Abstract:
Magnetic dipole, M1, strengths were studied in semimagic ^{50}Ti up to the neutron-separation threshold by combining data from (d,p) one-neutron transfer, (γ,γ^{'}) real-photon scattering, (e,e^{'}) inelastic scattering at extreme backward angles, and (p,p^{'}) at E_{p}=210 MeV and extreme forward angles. The combination of all probes provided unique access to the neutron spin-flip contribution and the possibility to evaluate its role in generating the spin-flip M1 strengths. The small contribution of the neutron (1f_{7/2})^{-1}(1f_{5/2})^{+1} spin-flip transitions, which were probed with the (d,p) reaction, to the overall strength in ^{50}Ti questions the standard picture for the microscopic origin of spin-flip strength in the fp shell. For ^{50}Ti, this Letter shows that J^{π}=1^{+} states with larger neutron (1f_{7/2})^{-1}(1f_{5/2})^{+1} spectroscopic factors do not correspond to the ones with the largest B(M1;0_{1}^{+}→1_{i}^{+}) strengths.

Theoretically, studying electric dipoles leads to understanding why the resultant electric forces around us are weak. Since electric forces are strong, remnant net charges are rare. Hence, the interaction between dipoles helps us understand electrical interactions in...
