Description

The current status of experimental study of level density and γ-strength functions is reviewed. Three experimental techniques are used. These are measurements of particle evaporation spectra from compound nuclear reactions, the measurements of particle-γ coincidences from inelastic scattering and pick-up reactions and the method of two-step γ-cascades following neutron/proton radiative capture. Recent experimental data on level densities from neutron evaporation spectra are shown. The first results on the cascade γ-spectrum from the 59Co(p,2γ)60Ni reaction are presented
