Trinucleon photoeffect: Isospin 1/2

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., C; (United States)
I modify the Levinger-Fitzgibbon calculation of electric dipole transitions to final trinucleon states of isospin 1/2 by assuming that the photon energy is equal to the sum of the threshold for two-body breakup and the total kinetic energy of the final state. This modification greatly improves the following: (i) the threshold behavior of the cross section; (ii) the agreement between the integrated cross section found from sigma (E/sub ..gamma../) and that found from sum rules; (iii) the agreement between the total calculated cross section (summed over two isospin states) and Gorbunov's experiments (summed over two-body and three-body breakup).
