Isoscalar and isovector transition amplitudes inA=13

Abstract
Data for the isovector charge exchange reaction (He3,t) on C13 are compared to He3 inelastic scattering data containing both isovector and isoscalar parts, and to strictly isoscalar inelastic He4 scattering to determine the ratio of ΔT=1 to ΔT=0 transition amplitudes for several states. These amplitudes are used to compute the charge asymmetry for π+ and π inelastic scattering on C13 and good agreement is found for six excited states. A ratio of mirror electromagnetic reduced transition rates is also correctly predicted. Several scattering mechanism models are compared for the excitation of the high-spin 72+ and 92+ states of C13 or N13 but no single mechanism can be shown to dominate.
