The energy and angular distributions of photoprotons from silicon, phosphorus, and sulfur irradiated with 32-Mev bremsstrahlung were maasured. The yields of protons, expressed in units of 10/sup 5/ protons per mole per roentgen, were found to be: silicon, 3.7; phosphorus, 4.3; and sulfur, 4.8. The measured distributions were compared with predictions of compound nucleus model and Wilkinson's shell model. The energy distributions agree very well with predictions of Wilkinson's theory, whereas for angular distributions this model, neglecting all interferences, seems to be too simple. (auth)
