Abstract

Published data on the intensities of two-step cascades to 12 final-state levels of the 96Mo nucleus are approximated by using a set of possible random dependences of the level density and radiative strength functions for primary E1 and M1 transitions. The average values of these parameters of gamma decay for any excitation energies and for gamma transitions agree well with basic dependences revealed to date from similar experiments for 42 nuclei in the mass-number range 40 ≤ A ≤ 200, but they are inconsistent with the generally accepted ideas of the parameters of the cascade gamma decay of compound states of nuclei having high level densities.
