A new approach to the study of Gamow-Teller resonances based on the observation of these resonances in compound nuclei has been tested experimentally on the reaction 117Sn(/?,/z)U7Sb. A resonance found in the excitation function σρη [Ep) has parameter values (ER =7.17 MeV, Γ = 0.99 MeV, Γ ρ = 50 keV) close to those expected for a 1+ Gamow-Teller resonance in the compound nucleus 118Sb.
