Abstract

The radiation widths of bound nuclear levels excited by (γ,γ) reactions in nuclei La139, Te130, Sn120, Sr86, Se80, and Zn66 have been measured. The present results together with results published by other authors using (γ,γ) reactions are summarized and compared with similar results obtained in capture reactions of thermal and resonance neutrons. The expected properties of the nuclear levels obtained by extrapolation of the giant-dipole resonance to lower energies are compared with the present experimental data. The fluctuation in partial radiative widths from these bound levels is shown to be compatible with the Porter-Thomas distribution.
