Abstract

The capture of fast polarized neutrons incident on

{}^{40}{Ca}

has been measured at an incident neutron energy of 10.0 MeV. The results indicate a significant non-

E 1

contribution in the giant-dipole-energy region of

{}^{41}{Ca}

. When the data at

E_{n} = 10

MeV are analyzed with the use of a model, they are found to be consistent with an

E 2

strength which is (3.2±2.7)% of the total capture cross section. Some of the implications of this result are discussed.
