    Abstract

    A high resolution magnetic pair spectrometer for medium energy photons has been used for studies of the exclusive (p,e(+)e(-)) and (p, gamma) reactions on deuterium at 98 and 176 MeV. The (p, e(+)e(-)) cross sections, obtained at 40 degrees and 80 degrees, are compared with the corresponding data for the (p, gamma) reaction measured with the same apparatus. At small virtual photon masses the (p, e(+)e(-)) cross sections show significant enhancement over what is expected from model calculations, a behaviour which has earlier been observed also for the B-11(p, e(+)e(-))C-12 reaction.
