Abstract
The dipole response of the doubly magic nuclide was studied in photon-scattering experiments at the electron linear accelerator ELBE with bremsstrahlung produced at kinetic electron energies of 9.0 and 15.0 MeV. The present data combined with data from the literature are compared with results of shell-model calculations and calculations using a quasiparticle random-phase approximation. The shell-model calculations including (2p-2h) excitations describe the experimental strength well and reproduce the spreading of the giant dipole resonance by applying a small smearing width only.
