Abstract

The ( $p, n$ ) reaction has been studied at $E_{p} = 23$ MeV on 35 nuclei ranging in mass from ${}^{9}{Be}$ to ${}^{208}{Pb}$ . Overall energy resolution for the levels of interest ranged from 50 to 200 keV. Compound-nucleus contributions appear to be generally small at this bombarding energy. Early distorted-wave Born-approximation analysis of the data reveals several difficulties, both for macroscopic and microscopic forms of analysis.
