1.3. y-n reaction in the nuclei Id- Li<br />

6 9<br />

A Li an( i a 'Li targets were exposed to the y beam of a betatron<br />

(30 MeV maximum energy).<br />

The resulting neutrons were recorded using nuclear plates.<br />

The energy spectra of the neutrons gave a measurement of the<br />

energy of the possible excited states for nuclei Li and 'Li»<br />

The results obtained are in good agreement with other measure­<br />

ments previously done. The detailed results of this experiment<br />

are given in [3] [4].<br />

1 .4. Photodisintegration of Li m H • He.<br />

After some preliminary experiments, nuclear plates doped with<br />

Li° were used to study the reaction<br />

6 Li (Y,t) 3 H.<br />

The scanning of the emulsions is now performed.<br />

We hope to verify in this way some predictions that come out of<br />

2.1. High resolution, high efficiency y-ray spectrometer<br />

A spectrometer for y-rays in the energy region between 20 and<br />

100 MeV, having a 2% resolution and a mean 6% efficiency, was<br />

assembled using two large Nal(Tl) crystals (see f5]). The<br />

dimensions of the two crystals are 230 mm diameter x 160 mm<br />

height, and 148 mm diameter x 93 mm height.<br />

The smaller crystal has a central hole in which the incident<br />

beam is collimated. The systems act as a 47T spectrometer<br />

but with two separate crystals it is possible to impose supple­<br />

mentary condition to improve the resolution. The spectrometer<br />

is now completely assembled and preliminary measurements were
