Figure 3

Upper panel: Radiative strength function of ${}^{117}\mathrm{Sn}$ from the present work (black squares), and from ($\gamma$, $x$) photonuclear reactions (red open triangles [26], stars [27], and blue open squares [28]). The sum of the GLO $E1$ strength and the $M1$ spin-flip resonance is shown as a solid line. The GLO $E1$ strength, the $M1$ spin-flip resonance (dashed-dotted line), and a Gaussian parameterization of the pygmy resonance (dashed line) are added to get a best fit (thick, blue solid line) to the data. The sum of the SLO $E1$ strength and the $M1$ strength is shown for comparison (dotted line). Lower panel: same as in the upper panel except that a QRPA $E1$ strength is used.Reuse & Permissions
