Giant dipole resonance in 4He

Abstract
The 4He giant dipole resonance is calculated with the generalized R-matrix method of Lane and Robson. The model treats the center of mass correctly and includes noncentral components in the nucleon–nucleon interaction via the Sussex interaction. The 4He(γ,p)3H and 4He(γ,n)3He cross sections are sensitive to the 4He level spectrum, but are in reasonable agreement with the photonuclear data for level schemes which agree with the spectrum suggested by Fiarman and Meyerhof (FM). Other spectra which bracket the FM levels lead to poorer photonuclear cross sections. R-matrix model results also lead to a (γ,p)/(γ,n) cross section ratio which is about unity.
