Abstract

We have studied resonant, intrastate and non-resonant bremsstrahlungγ-ray transitions leading to the 2+ state in8Be atE x=2.94 MeV. We find aγ-width of Γ γ =0.45 eV for the 4+ state in8Be, corresponding to anE 2 strength of 19 W.u. For the intrastateγ-ray transition within the 2+ resonance we predict a maximum cross section of 2.5 nb atE≈3.3 MeV. An experimental observation of this novel type ofγ-ray emission, however, appears to be difficult due to the dominance of competing resonant and direct capture processes.
