- Description
- Levinger's quasi-deuteron model of nuclear photoabsorption has been used together with modern root-mean-square radius data to obtain Levinger's constant L of nuclei throughout the Periodic Table. It is found that <math> L = 6.8 - 11.2A^{-2/3}\,\!</math> <math>+\,\!</math> <math> 5.7A^{-4/3}\,\!</math>, which gives L-values in good agreement with those obtained from measured total nuclear photoabsorption cross sections.
