  • Abstract
    The proton radiative capture reactions, 12C(p, y)13N and 13C(p, y)14N, have been studied to determine their applicability for assaying materials for their 13C enrichment. This technique for determining carbon isotopic ratios compares favorably with the more classical analysis techniques for 13C tracer experiments.
