Abstract

The possibility of J dependence of s-wave neutron strength function S is examined empirically, (a) by comparing adjoining odd-mass I ≠ 0 and even (I nuclei (b) by requiring that the strength function should vary smoothly with atomic weight for adjoining odd-mass nuclei with different spins, and (c) by comparing the average reduced widths for the various isotopes of uranium. It is concluded that S_I is proportional to 12J, and therefore that the optical potential should have a contribution which is dependent on target spin.
