Abstract
Nuclear resonance fluorescence experiments are reported to search for enhanced M1 scissors mode states in the deformed odd-mass nucleus Dy-1 63. A concentration of dipole strengths near 3 MeV excitation energy i s found, which fits nicely into the systematics observed for M1 excita tions in the neighboring even-even Dy isotopes. The observed strength distribution and the decay branching ratios are discussed in the conte xt of the interacting boson-fermion model.
