Photoprotons from100Mo

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento (1955-1965)

Summary

The present work represents an extension of the measurements of the photoproton yield from100Mo up to an energy of 30 MeV. It is found a rather large (γ, p) cross section at a higher energy* than that for the (γ, n) reaction. A discussion is given of this evidence implying that the initial states of the protons involved in these transitions are different than those for the neutron or proton states responsible for the giant resonance in the (γ, n) reaction.

Riassunto

Il lavoro rappresenta una estensione fino a 30 MeV delle misure sull’emissione di fotoprotoni dal100Mo. Si riscontra che la sezione d’urto per reazione (γ, p) ha valori relativamente elevati per energie assai più grandi di quelle corrispondenti alla reazione (γ, n). Questo fatto indicherebbe che gli stati iniziali dei protoni che danno luogo a queste transizioni dovrebbero essere assai diversi da quelli dei neutroni o dei protoni responsabili della risonanza gigante nella reazione (γ, n).
