Abstract

One-body contributions to parity mixing in compound nuclear states are discussed, with reference to the recent polarized neutron transmission experiments. The role of the J=0- giant spin-dipole resonance as a mediator of parity mixing in complex nuclear states is pointed out, and an expression of the parity violating spreading width derived. The collective nature of the mixing mechanism is stressed, and an analogy with isospin mixing in nuclei is drawn.
