Abstract

The photoproton knockout reaction on ${}^{16}O$ leaving ${}^{15}N$ in low-lying bound states has been observed over the photon energy range from 196 to 361 MeV. The angular distribution for the reaction populating the ground state of ${}^{15}N$ develops sharp structure as the photon energy is increased but that for population of the excited states is smooth. The results are not explained by existing theoretical models.
