Abstract

The method of diffusion chamber in the magnetic field making use of a bremsstrahlung beam with a maximum photon energy of 150 MeV is applied to study the 12C(y,3a) and 16O(y,4a) reactions. A resonance identified as the ground state of 8Be nucleus is found in the distribution of events over the energy of the relative motion of two a-particles. The partial cross-sections of the 8Be nucleus formation channels are measured. It is shown that the mechanism of interaction between a y-quantum and a virtual a-particle pair takes place in this case.
