Abstract
Experiments have been carried out on the inelastic scattering of 2·5 mev neutrons by chromium, manganese and vanadium. Both gamma-rays and inelastically scattered neutrons were observed. The following levels were identified: Chromium 1·44±0·03 mev, Manganese 0·126±0·005 mev, 0·98±0±05 mev, 1·34±0·05 mev, 1·65±0·05 mev, 2·40±0·05 MeV; Vanadium 0·32±0·02 mev, 0·92±0·04 mev, 1·62±0·04 mev, 1·83±0·04 mev. The decay scheme of the levels excited in 55Mn was investigated by the method of gamma-gamma coincidences, and it was shown that the higher energy states decay by cascade via the 0·126 mev level.Keywords
