The cross-sections for photo-proton emission from Li, Be, C, O, AI, Ca, Cu, Ag and Au irradiated with bremsstrahlung of maximum energy 400 MeV have been determined for proton energies in the range 80 to 280 MeV at laboratory angles between 14 and 130 degrees. A qualitative examination of the data is made to determine whether or not they agree with the predictions of the quasi-deuteron model.
