Abstract

The technique developed by Findlay and Owens for the extraction of a
consistently effective momentum distribution from the 51V (γ,p)50Ti reaction data is applied to the cross sections obtained for each of the discrete low lying excited states ( 0.0 , 1.6 , 2.7 , 3.2 , 3.8 , 4.4 and 6.0 ) MeV ,respectively.The momentum density and momentum mismatch have been calculated using the method of Findlay and Owens for each excited state. This program has been written for this purpose using
Fortran-77 language.The momentum scaled distribution would illustrate that the simple Direct Knockout Model (DKM) behavior observed in the (γ,p) reaction could be regarded as evidence for the importance of the DKM process in the (γ,p) reaction.
Clearly the application of the procedure given by Findlay and Owens leads to a more consistent momentum distribution
