Abstract: (Elsevier)
Consideration of second-order core-polarisation, isobar-current and meson-exchange-current processes gives a satisfactory understanding of the ground-state magnetic moments and mirror β-decay transition probabilities in closed-shell-plus- (or minus) one nuclei, A = 3, 15, 17, 39 and 41. Perturbation contributions from high-lying excited states (tensor correlations) from one-body and two-body meson-exchange operators cancel strongly in diagonal matrix elements, but in off-diagonal matrix elements between spin-orbit partners the cancellation is less. Similarly, with isobar currents, there is a strong cancellation between direct and exchange contributions in diagonal matrix elements, while the exchange term is suppressed in off-diagonal cases. Of the two contributions, tensor correlations are found to be as important as, if not more important than, isobar currents. The calculated lowest-order meson-exchange-current contributions to magnetic moments are close to the soft-pion limit predictions.
