Abstract
The photoneutron cross sections of the 50-neutron isotopes Rb87, Zr90, and Mo92 have been measured as a function of photon energy. These cross sections exhibit the peaked shape characteristic of photonuclear reactions. Peak values of 0.23, 0.27, and 0.14 barn at 17.5, 18.0, and 18.7 Mev. respectively were found for these nuclei. The widths of all the curves at half maximum were about 6 Mev. In the case of zirconium and molybdenum the cross sections to the isomeric and ground states of the residual nuclei have been determined separately. The ratio of the cross sections, σ ground/σ isomeric, has been examined as a function of photon energy and is discussed in the light of the elementary analysis previously presented.
