T/sub >/giant resonance in /sup 142/Nd via the reaction /sup 142/Nd(e,e'p)

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., C; (United States)

The reaction /sup 142/Nd(e,e'p)/sup 141/Pr has been used to study the T/sub >/giant resonance in /sup 142/Nd. Cross sections for the /sup 142/Nd(..gamma..,p)/sup 141/Pr and /sup 142/Nd(..gamma..,p/sub 0/ + p/sub 1/)/sup 141/Pr reactions were measured for excitation energies from 15.9 to 26.0 MeV. These cross sections are compared with previous /sup 141/Pr(p,..gamma../sub 0/)/sup 142/Nd data. The angular distributions for the larger resonances at 17.3, 19.7, and 22.9 MeV were measured. Analysis indicates that the 22.9-MeV state has about a 13% E2 component. The decay proton spectra from the 19.7- and 22.9-MeV resonances were analyzed with a schematic shell model and indicates that the core excitation process is dominant in these isobaric analog resonances. The measured (..gamma..,p) cross section together with the (..gamma..,n) cross section is found to be fairly consistent with the predictions of isospin splitting theory.
