【 摘 要 】

The Chew meson theory has been applied in an attempt to explain the observed resonance occurring in the photodisintegration of the deuteron at an energy of about 250 Mev. The resonance is interpreted as being due to the rescattering of a virtual photoproduced meson in the J = 3/2, T = 3/2 state from one of the two nucleons, the meson being finally absorbed. The impulse approximation is used to describe the scattering. Results are obtained for the total cross section as a function of energy in qualitative agreement with experiment, but though an asymmetry in the angular distribution is found, it does not give a different cross section at 0[degrees] and 180[degrees] as seems to be required by the data.
