Abstract
Cross sections for production of individual y rays in the 54Cr(p, y)55Mn reaction have been measured over the proton energy range 1�0-3�8 MeV. Gamma-ray yields are observed to fall by factors of between 5 and 10 at the crossing of the neutron threshold for a proton bombarding energy of 2�2 MeV. Statistical model calculations with global parameter sets successfully account for the dramatic effect of neutron competition on the (p, y) cross section, and at the same time correctly predict the 54Cr(p,n)54Mn reaction cross section.Keywords
