Abstract

We have investigated photonuclear reactions in 208 Pb from the reaction threshold to pion production threshold. In the Giant Dipole Resonance energy region we have considered the results of a recent 1− 1p-1h continuum calculation and multiplied them, heuristically, by a factor, which includes the effect of neglected nucleon-nucleon correlations, through the occupation number probabilities of the single particle and hole energy levels. We have thus obtained a much better agreement with experiment. In the energy region above the Giant Dipole Resonance we have considered a quasi deuteron model, which contains the effect of nucleon swelling. Both this model and corresponding integrated sum rules yield a satisfactory agreement with experiment.
