Abstract
Oxygen gas has been irradiated by bremsstrahlung of 32 MeV maximum energy. Photoprotons were detected in nuclear emulsion plates. Only tracks belonging to proton energiesEp>10MeV were measured. The spectrum of the photoprotons shows a maximum atEp=11·2 MeV. The angular distributions of various proton groups are peaked near the 90‡ angle with the peak shifting in the forward direction with increasing energy. At 28 MeV gamma energy the partial cross section for transitions to the ground state of N15, averaged over an energy range of 1·2 MeV, was determined to be 2·1 mbarn ±25%. The results are discussed.
