PHOTOPROTON REACTION IN BERYLLIUM-9
The yield for the Be/sup 9/( gamma ,p)Li/sup 8/ reaction was measured from the threshold (16.89 Mev) up to 57 Mev using a bremsstrahlung beam. Data were taken in energy steps of 0.046 Mev for the first several Mev and in energy steps of 0.94 Mev for the remainder of the yield curve. The yield curves were analyzed for the cross section. Several small resonances in the cross section that correspond to known energy levels in the Be/sup 9/ nucleus were observed near the threshold. The giant resonance cross section reached a peak value of 2.64 plus or minus 0.33 mb at an energy of 25 Mev and possessed a large high energy tail. The integrated cross section to 56.8 Mev was 41.4 plus or minus 4.6 Mev-mb. (Dissertation Abstr., 23: No. 4, 1962)
