We simultaneously measured the 4 He(γ, n) 3 He and 4 He(γ, p) 3 H reactions in the energy range around the giant dipole resonance. A quasi-mono-energetic photon beam produced via the laser Compton scattering technique was irradiated on the active-target time-projection chamber filled with helium gas, and trajectories of charged decay particles emitted from 4 He were measured. Our data suggest that the 4 He(γ, n) 3 He and 4 He(γ, p) 3 H cross sections peak around 26 MeV. This result contradicts the previous experimental data reported by Shima et al. but is consistent with other experimental results.
