Abstract
The decay of the18O GDR to excited residual nuclear states has been examined by measuring spectra of prompt deexcitationγ-rays. The target was irradiated by bremsstrahlung with endpoint energies of 23.5 and 28 MeV. “Bremsstrahlung-weighted” integrated cross sections are given for the population of the residual nuclear states in17O,17N,16O and14C. Proton decay to excited states in17N is remarkably weak. It seems that 1p 3/2 excitations play only a minor role in the18O GDR.
