Jdt. Arrudaneto et al., PHOTOEXCITATION MECHANISMS INVESTIGATED THROUGH THE FISSION CHANNEL, Physical review. C. Nuclear physics, 54(6), 1996, pp. 3294-3297
An approach for the delineation of the compound nucleus excitation ene
rgy, from the photofission cross section at intermediate energies, is
worked out. An application for W-182, Au, and Ta is presented. The pot
ential of this formalism, for the study of pion properties inside the
nuclear medium, is discussed.
