Mixed‐symmetric 2+state of56Fe is investigated by shell model in a large configuration space in thepf‐shell. We can reproduce experimental energy levels by using Kuo‐Brown interaction. The (e,e’) form factors are also reproduced quite well by including the core polarization effect. By analyzing these reliable shell model wavefunctions, we conclude that the 22+and the 24+states share the main part of mixed‐symmetry state.
