The absolute intensities of gamma rays having energies between 200 and 650 kev, emitted after resonant neutron capture in Cd/sup 113/, Te/sup 123/ Sm/ sup 147/, Sm/sup 149/, and Sm/sup 152/ ha ve been measured. The instrumentation involved a combination of time-of-flight technique and multichannel pulse-height analysis using a NaI(Tl) scintillation counter. The eveneven compound nuclei studied appear to emit intense lowenergy gamma rays, while the even-odd nucleus Sm/sup 153/ shows no correspondingly intense low-energy transitions. (auth)
