14 Summary Charge exchange reactions at intermediate energies are a useful probe of spin-isospin responses. The (p,n) reaction at 300 MeV is simplest probe for the GT transition. The GT unit cross sections has been successfully determined at 200 & 300 MeV. It is shown by using SM calc. & DWIA calc. that the GT unit cross section works well. B(GT) distrib. Have been deduced for double beta decay nuclei using the above obtained GT unit cross sections.
