The nucleus 94 Mo was investigated using a powerful combination of γ-singles photon scattering experiments and γγ-coincidence studies following the βdecay of 94m Tc. The data survey short-lived J π = 1 + , 2 + states and include branching ratios, E2/M 1 mixing ratios, lifetimes and transition strengths. The proton-neutron mixed-symmetry (MS) 1 + scissors mode and the 2 + MS state are identified from M 1 strengths. A γ transition between MS states was observed and its rate was measured. Nine M 1 and E2 strengths involving MS states agree with the O(6) limit of the Interacting Boson Model-2 using the proton boson E2 charge as the only free parameter.
