The (g, p) and (g, n) Reactions in Molybdenum

Abstract

Measurements have been made of the cross sections for some of the (g,p) and (y, n) reactions in molybdenum using the technique of residual activation analysis. The gross structure of these cross sections is compared with previous measurements and the results are interpreted as evidence for the isospin splitting of the giant dipole resonance in medium weight nuclei.
