The cross section for the ' N(y, 2n) reaction has been studied from 20 to 28 MeV. The cross section remains near zero for 3 MeV above threshold, then rises sharply at about 24 MeV, to a maximum value of 1.7 mb. The shape is explained in terms of the density of T& states in ' N at the relevant excitation energy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
