Two-body photodisintegration ofHe3between 150 and 350 MeV

Abstract
Differential cross sections for He3(γ, d)H1 for incident energies between 150 and 350 MeV at center-of-mass proton angles near 60° and 90° have been measured with an absolute uncertainty of less than 6%. The experiment used a single-arm spectrometer, a gas target, and an uncollimated bremsstrahlung beam. The results are in good agreement with new measurements of the time-reversed reaction, H2(p, He3)γ, giving no evidence for a violation of time-reversal invariance. The differential cross sections decrease smoothly with energy and show only a small contribution from the Δ(1232) resonance.
