Description
Excitation functions are presented for many heavy-ioninduced (HI) reactions that produce Dy/sup 149/, Dy/sup 150/, and Dy/sup 151/. Projectiles were C/sup 12/, N/sup 14/, N/sup 16/, O/sup 16, O/sup 18/, F/sup 1 9/, and Ne/sup 20/ of 4 to 10.4 Mev per amu. The reactions studied are all of the type (HI,xn), where x ranges from 3 to 9. A large fraction of the total reaction cross section is accounted for by these (HI,xn) reactions --9/10 at approximately 45 Mev to 1/2 at approximately 105 Mev. An analysis to obtain the energy of the first neutron is presented. Comparison of the results of this analysis to angular-distribution studies suggests that each neutron removes 2 to 4 h units of angular momentum. The relation between the average total photon energy and the average angular momentum removed by photons is obtained. Comparison with the average photon energy from other work leads to an average of 1.8 plus or minus 0.6 h for the angular momentum removed by each photon. The excitation energy E/sub j/ of the lowest-lying state of spin J was estimated. (auth)
