3H 3-body photodisintegration 3H + g p + n + n The total cross section for three-body photodisintegration of 3H. This figure is taken from the thesis of R. Skibinski. The data are from Faul et al, Phys. Rev. C 24, 849 (1981). . The calculations are by R. Skibinski The MECs are treated using the Siegert theorem. HIGS2 WS
