Electromagnetic processes in silver isotopes

Resumo

Peculiarities of electromagnetic interactions in silver isotopes are considered. Excited states of Ag isotopes are studied as a function of the mass number A = 95–117. Low-lying excited states reveal clear features that are specific for rotational spectra for the energies E < 4–5 MeV. In the energy domain above the nucleon separation threshold of 5–10 MeV, single-particle excited states overlap and produce a continuous spectrum. For energies E = 10–35 MeV, excitation of giant dipole resonance plays the most important role in Ag isotopes. Experimental data on the cross sections of photonuclear reactions in Ag isotopes are analyzed.
