摘要
Photoneutron cross sections, including σ[(γ,n)+(γ,pn)], σ(γ,2n), and σ(γ,3n), were measured for Mn55 and Co59 from threshold to 36.5 MeV, with a photon energy resolution which varied from 80 keV at the lowest to 170 keV at the highest energies measured. The source of radiation was the monoenergetic photon beam obtained from the annihilation in flight of fast positrons. The partial photoneutron cross sections were determined by neutron multiplicity counting, and the average neutron energies for (γ,1n) and (γ,2n) events were determined simultaneously with the cross-section data by the ring-ratio technique. The cross sections exhibit considerable but weak structure. Other nuclear information extracted from the data includes parameters of the giant dipole resonance, integrated cross sections and their moments, and nuclear symmetry energies. A comparison is made with previous experimental data for these nuclei as well as with theoretical predictions based upon hydrodynamic, vibrational, and dynamic collective models. None of these models fits the data for these odd-even nuclei satisfactorily; more theoretical work is needed for this nuclear mass region. NUCLEAR REACTIONS Mn55, Co59 (γ, n, 2n, 3n), Eγ=10-36.5 MeV; measured 4π neutron yield, multiplicities, average energies for monoenergetic photons; σ(Eγ, 1n), σ(Eγ,2n), σ(Eγ,3n), GDR parameters, integrated cross sections and moments, nuclear symmetry energies. © 1979 The American Physical Society.
