A clean separatlon of compound-nucleus and direct-reaction processes in (p, alpha ) reaction was made for 12- and 17-MeV protons bombarding on Cd and Sn isotopes. Results indicated the compound-nucleus contributions for /sup 112/Sn give isotropic angular distribution for the alpha -particles. Shapes of the energy spectra of emitted alpha -particles were in good agreement with statistical theory calculation, but asolute cross sections were larger than predicted by a factor of 2 to 7.
