Abstract

A broad resonance has been observed by inelastic scattering of 200 MeV protons from

{}^{90}{Zr}

{}^{92}{Zr}

{}^{94}{Zr}

, and

{}^{96}{Zr}

. This resonance has a sharply forward peaked angular distribution and an excitation energy and strength which strongly suggest that it is the

M 1

giant resonance. Microscopic distorted wave impulse approximation calculations match the shape of the angular distribution reasonably well. The strength, however, is only about 30% of that predicted.
