Core polarization corrections to magnetic dipole moments and transitions

Core polarization corrections to ground state magnetic dipole moments are calculated in first-order perturbation theory, with the use of Sussex matrix elements. These corrections are introduced in the particle-(hole-) core coupling model. It is shown that the need for effective g s factors in the calculation of magnetic moments can be explained largely in terms of one-particle-one-hole polarization effects of the core. The influence of these effects on the reduced M1 transition probabilities for l-forbidden transition is also considered.
