Abstract

By using a variable monochromatic photon beam, the partial photoneutron cross sections σ(γ, n) + σ(γ, pn), σ(γ, 2n) and σ(γ, 3n) are determined in the region of the giant dipole resonance for the doubly even Mo isotopes 92Mo, 94Mo, 96Mo, 98Mo and 100Mo. Measured integrated photoneutron cross sections are compared with available integrated photoproton cross sections as a function of A. Broadening of the giant dipole resonance as A increases is observed in good agreement with the predictions of the dynamic collective model. A tentative study of some isospin splitting effects is also carried out.

      The flux-weighted average cross sections for the same targets are presented in Table 8. Yield of the 100Мо(γ,n)99Мо reaction was measured and analysed in detail in a number of papers (Naik et al., 2016a; Beil et al., 1974). This circumstance makes it possible to compare our results with published ones (Fig. 7).

      Both the experimental data and the results of the LD model calculation had a similar Gaussian distribution. On the other hand, the peak point of all LD models for this reaction was lower than the experimental data of Beil et al. (1974). BSFGM was the most optimal LD model for 100Mo(γ,n)99Mo reaction, based on calculations of the relative variance (Table 2).
