Gamma decay of isoscalar and isovector giant resonances following heavy-ion inelastic scattering

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5616287
Results from studies of gamma decay of giant resonances in /sup 208/Pb and /sup 90/Zr following inelastic excitation by 22 and 84 MeV/nucleon /sup 17/O ions are presented. Data on ground state decay of isoscalar giant quadrupole and isovector giant dipole resonances are presented and compared with calculations. Decays from resonances to low lying excited states are also discussed. Preliminary results from an attempt to isolate the isovector quadrupole resonance in /sup 208/Pb using its gamma decay are presented.
