Photodisintegration of helium-3 at energies between 200 and 600 MEV
<p>We have measured differential cross-sections for the two-body photodisintegration of Helium-3, ɣ + He<sup>3</sup> → p + d, between incident photon energies of 200 and 600 MeV, and for center of mass frame angles between 30° and 150°. Both final state particles were detected in...
