Evidence for nuclear photoexcitation obtained in low-energy γ-ray scattering experiments

Elastic photon scattering investigated at energies of 2.5–3.5 MeV using radioactive sources has revealed a large probability for observing photoexcitation of nuclear levels. This finding removes inconsistencies in previously investigated properties of Delbrück scattering and provides a new access to...

Description
Summary:Elastic photon scattering investigated at energies of 2.5–3.5 MeV using radioactive sources has revealed a large probability for observing photoexcitation of nuclear levels. This finding removes inconsistencies in previously investigated properties of Delbrück scattering and provides a new access to nuclear resonance fluorescence.
