Measurement of the /sup 12/C(n,. gamma. /sub 0/)/sup 13/C cross section in the giant dipole resonance region

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
The /sup 12/C(n,..gamma../sub 0/) /sup 13/C excitation function at 90/sup 0/ has been measured for neutron energies from 6.5 to 18.5 MeV. Whereas previous measurements disagreed at the lower energies with a direct-semidirect capture calculation based on /sup 12/C(p,..gamma../sub 0/) /sup 13/N data, the present results, especially when the uncertainty in absolute cross section is considered, indicate reasonable qualitative agreement with the calculation.
