Abstract

Gamma rays excited by inelastic neutron scattering in Mn55 have been studied. Coincidence methods have been used to observe those gamma rays which cascade through the 127 keV first excited state. Branching ratios have been measured for four levels, as well as the cross sections for excitation of each level. Theoretical calculations of the cross section, using a diffuse-edge potential well, give good agreement with the experiment, if appropriate spin values are assigned to each level.
