Inelastic Neutron Scattering from Rhodium and Niobium

Abstract
Inelastic scattering of neutrons has been used to study excited states in Rh103 and Nb93. Gamma rays have been observed from the 300- and 365-kev levels in Rh. Gamma rays of 736- and 957-kev energy have been obtained from Nb. As a result of threshold measurements, these gamma rays are interpreted as representing transitions to the 29-kev metastable state from levels at 764- and 977-kev in Nb.
