Description

There are many good reasons for measuring the neutron-proton bremsstrahlung cross sections at intermediate energies: (1) The neutron-proton bremsstrahlung, like the proton-proton bremsstrahlung, is an ideal process for investigating the off-shell behavior of the two-nucleon interaction. (2) The measured neutron-proton bremsstrahlung cross sections can be used to distinguish various phenomenological potentials. (3) The measured neutron-proton bremsstrahlung spectra in the hard-photon regions at intermediate energies can be used to study the problem of the high-energy photon emission in heavy ion collisions. (4) The measured neutron-proton bremsstrahlung cross sections at intermediate energies can be used to test the range of validity of various theoretical models and approximations. 14 refs
