Abstract

A systematic investigation of the average neutron capture cross sections at 25 keV is undertaken to study the structure of giant resonances in the p wave neutron strength functions. As a part of this program and to fill in the gaps in the existing cross section data, radiative capture cross sections for the following isotopes have been measured. 74Se, 78Se, 84Sr, 109Ag, 122Te, 159Tb, 169Tm, 174Yb, 176Yb, 178Hf, 179Hf and 192Os. The activation method and absolute gamma counting technique have been employed. The new results are reported with a discussion of the p wave neutron capture in these nuclei.
