description

We calculate the total cross sections for different multiple transitions in photon absorption in a {sup 1}{ital S}{sub 0} {ital pp} pair embedded in a {sup 3}He nucleus. Employing two models, one involving only nucleon degrees of freedom, the other in addition the {Delta}(1232) isobar, we show that the {Delta} gives important effects even in transitions where the photon cannot couple directly to the isobar.
