“…of the deuteron should be possible without explicit reference to the meson fields through which the nucleons interact 23 and, indeed, good agreement with experiment is obtained up to about 10 Mev. 1 From 20 to 60 Mev the total cross sections are still in reasonable agreement with experiment, 8 but departures are noted in the angular distributions. The experiments indicate a growing isotropic component while calculations 21 of the dominant electric dipole and quadrupole transitions from the 3 S state assuming a central potential give zero cross sections at 0° and 180°.…”

The photodissociation of the deuteron has been investigated for laboratory photon energies of 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, and 450 Mev at laboratory angles of 39, 56, 74, 93,115, and 138 degrees. The process was identified by detecting the recoil protons in a range-ionization telescope. The total cross section has a relative minimum at 150 Mev followed by a relative maximum at 250 Mev where its values are 53X10 -30 cm 2 and 63X10 -30 cm 2 , respectively. From 150 to 250 Mev the center-of-momentum angular distributions have a strong forward maximum which diminishes at higher energies until the distributions become approximately symmetrical. There is qualitative agreement with meson theories on some points.

“…In other deuteron photodisintegration experiments where range or energy counters have been used, the correction for this effect has been calculated on the basis of assumptions about the cross sections and angular distributions involved. Yamagata et al 18 found that in the energy range of this experiment a maximum correction of 17.6% was obtained if the geometrical cross section was taken as the nuclear scattering cross section. On the assumption of total neutron cross sections, a maximum correction of 28.3% was calculated.…”
