Abstract

Measurements have been made of the absolute cross section for photodisintegration of the deuteron at six gamma-ray energies in a range where the photomagnetic effect is small compared with the photoelectric. The methods of determining the gamma-ray flux are described as are the high pressure deuterium-filled ionization chamber and proportional counter used to determine the disintegration rate. The results are given in the following table, together with the reactions used to provide the gamma-rays.
