Abstract

The work presented in this thesis describes the first experimental study of the 12C(gamma,pn) reaction using linearly polarised tagged photons in the energy range 150 MeV to 360 MeV. The experiment was carried out using the MAMI-B c.w. electron accelerator at the Institut fur Kernphysik, Mainz, Germany. Linearly polarised Bremsstrahlung photons were produced by a diamond radiator and are tagged by momentum analysing the recoiling electrons using the Glasgow tagging spectrometer. The tagger has an energy resolution of 2MeV and can tag photon fluxes of up to ~108s-1. The 12C target was in the form of a 2mm thick graphite sheet, placed at an angle of 30
