Abstract
The quality and intensity of rays at the High Intensity -ray Source are shown to make nuclear resonance fluorescence studies possible at a new level of precision and efficiency. First experiments have been carried out using an intense beam of linearly polarized, nearly monoenergetic, rays on the semimagic nucleus . Negative parity quantum numbers have been assigned to 18 dipole excitations of between 5.5 MeV and 6.5 MeV from azimuthal -intensity asymmetries.
