Deuteron photodisintegration by polarized photons in the region of the $d^*(2380)$
2019
We report the first large-acceptance measurement of the beam–spin asymmetry for deuteron photodisintegration (γ→d→pn) in the photon energy range 420<Eγ<620MeV. The measurement provides important new constraints on the mechanisms of photodisintegration above the Δ resonance and on the photocoupling of the recently discovered d⁎(2380) hexaquark.
Two-body photodisintegration of the deuteron from 100 to 800 MeV
1996
Abstract The total and the differential cross sections for the D(γ,p)n reaction have been measured over the photon energy range 100-800 MeV at the 855 MeV MAMI Microtron in Mainz. Using the large acceptance detector DAPHNE in conjunction with the Glasgow tagging spectrometer, high precision results with small systematic errors were obtained. The data are presented in the form of thirty-five angular distributions at c.m. proton angles between 30°–160° in 10° intervals and at photon energies in steps of 20 MeV. Previous experimental work is reassessed in the light of the present results and comparison with some recent theoretical calculations.
Exchange currents in electric transitions and the r�le of siegert's theorem: A case study in deuteron photodisintegration
1981
The size of exchange corrections to electric transitions is investigated for deuteron photodisintegration. Large contributions are found in El transitions, which become dominant above 40 MeV. Most of them are already included by using Siegert's theorem together with classical one-body operators. Higher multipoles are only little affected except for rather high energies. The Born approximation for the final states gives in general a poor description.
Deuteron photodisintegration with the Bonn OBE potentials
1989
The various OBE approximations to the recent Bonn potential are studied in deuteron photodisintegration below π-threshold. Consistent static meson-exchange currents, isobar currents, and the relativistic spin-orbit current are included. Concerning the OBEPT also the leading retardation corrections in the currents are taken into account. Comparison with experimental data is carried out in detail.
The γd → π0 d and γd → pn Reactions in the Δ-Resonance Region
1994
Coherent pion photoproduction on the deuteron and deuteron photodisintegration in the Δ-resonance region is studied treating the final state interaction within a NN−NΔ coupled channel approach.
Measurement of photon showers in lead produced by electrons of 150 MeV
1976
Abstract The photon energy spectra induced by 150 MeV electrons in lead were measured in the energy range from 40 MeV up to the primary electron energy. The target thickness was varied between 0.1 and 2.5 radiation lengths X 0 . The photons were analyzed by use of a technique based on deuteron photodisintegration. Differential and integral shower spectra are presented and compared with Monte Carlo calculations of Nagel and Messel et al., both interpolated to our primary energy of 150 MeV. The measured spectra show good agreement with these Monte Carlo calculations for the thickest target of 2.5 X 0 and with calculated bremsstrahlung spectra for the thinnest target of 0.1 X 0 .

A time-of-flight facility for the measurement of electron-induced neutron spectra
1974
Abstract A time-of-flight facility is constructed to investigate photoneutrons in the energy range 5 MeV ≤ En ≤ 200 MeV. Photoneutrons are detected simultaneously at four angles (40.2°, 90°, 113.5°, 142.2°). The overall time resolution varies from 0.282 ns/m to 0.358 ns/m, depending on the different flight paths (18.56 m to 11.40 m). As a first check the facility is used to measure the ratio of the number of virtual photons to real photons via the photodisintegration of 2H. The measured values agree with the calculated photon spectra.
The relativistic spin-orbit current in deuteron photodisintegration below and above ?-threshold
1988
It is shown that the spin-orbit current which leads to an improved description ofd(γ,p)n below π-threshold is essentially a two-body exchange effect. This is demonstrated by separation of its one-body contribution. Furthermore, above π-threshold its inclusion leads to an improved agreement with experiment, in particular for the differential cross section in the Δ-excitation region.
Study of three-nucleon mechanisms in the photodisintegration of 3He
1997
Abstract The cross section of the 3He(γ,pp)n reaction has been measured for the first time over a wide photon energy and proton angular range (200 MeV ≤ Eγ ≤ 800 MeV; 20° ≤ ϑplab ≤ 160°) using the large acceptance detector DAPHNE at the tagged photon facility of the MAMI microtron in Mainz. The wide kinematical coverage of the measurement has allowed a detailed analysis of three-nucleon absorption mechanisms. A model developed by Laget explains the main characteristics of the data in the Δ resonance region.
Introduction to the Discussion Session on Photo- and Electrodisintegration of the Deuteron
1992
This session is exclusively devoted to the electromagnetic break-up of the deuteron. It reflects the fact that notwithstanding its long history deuteron photo- and electrodisintegration is still an active and interesting field of research (for a recent review on photodisintegration see [1]). The purpose of this introduction is — on the one hand — to put the various contributions to this session into a general perspective and — on the other hand — to supply complimentary material of interesting recent experimental results which is of relevance to the general theme.
