The purpose of the study was to provide further evidence for the proposed isospin splitting of the GDR, and to investigate the role of isospin selection rules in the (α,γ) reaction.1 v.enResonanceAlpha raysNuclear excitationAlpha capture to the giant dipole and quadrupole resonances197410.25911/5d70ef7e7dac42017-11-22
