Abstract
Isomeric ratios in and reactions in Eu isotopes were measured. Thermal neutrons and bremsstrahlung photons in the giant dipole resonance energy range of 13–22 MeV were used to excite the isomeric states. The isomeric levels and were excited in the isotopes and The cross section for the reaction leading to the high-spin isomeric state on isotope was measured in the giant-dipole-resonance region by the activation method. Experimental values of the isomeric cross section ratios were compared with the theoretical values. The influence of the nuclei quadropole deformation on the isomeric ratio was described.
