Measurement of total photonuclear cross sections in the Δ-resonance region☆

Abstract Double differential cross sections for the photo-emission of photons and charged pion production were investigated for a number of target nuclei (He, Be, C, O, Ai, Ti, Cu, Sn, Pb) in the photon energy range k = (215−386) MeV. On the basis of these experimental results the total hadronic cross section was determined.
