Reactions ¹⁹F(γ,xγ′) and ³¹P(γ,xγ′)

Abstract

The spectra of deexcitation gamma rays following photodisintegration of 19F and 31P have been measured to study further the reaction channels involved in photodisintegration of nonclosed shell nuclei. Besides (γ,n) and (γ,p) decays to excited states of the residual nuclei, strong (γ,α) channels from 19F to the first excited state of 15N and from 31P to the first two excited states of 27Al were observed.
