Abstract

We have run an experiment to determine the energy levels and half-lives of Gallium nucleus by using the photonuclear reactions with end-point energy of 18 MeV bremsstrahlung photons, produced by a clinical linear accelerator. As a result of Ga-71(gamma,n)Ga-70 and Ga-69(gamma,n)Ga-68 photonuclear reactions, the energy levels and half-lives of Ga-70 and Ga-68 nuclei have been determined. The results are in good agreement with the literature values.
