Radiative proton capture to excited states in /sup 16/O

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
The radiative proton capture reaction on /sup 15/N was measured over the energy region E/sub p/ = 20--90 MeV. Presented are experimental differential cross sections at theta/sub ..gamma../ = 60/sup 0/ for captures populating the ground and various excited states of /sup 16/0. Differential cross sections and analyzing-power angular distributions are presented at a proton energy of E/sub p/ = 49.69 MeV. Calculations from a phenomenological direct-semidirect and a more detailed relativistic model describe cross sections well, but are less satisfactory in describing analyzing powers. Results of the energy-dependence measurements show that there are giant resonances built on all the excited states investigated.
