Isomeric yield ratios of 115 m,g Cd and 120 m,g Sb were measured in the (γ, n) reaction in the near-threshold region at γ-ray energies of 9.6, 9.8, 10.0, and 10.5 MeV. Experimental values of the isomeric yield ratios were compared with theoretical values calculated using the TALYS-1.0 program package. The (γ, n) reaction is shown to have a statistical character in the excitation region of residual nuclei 0.3–1.5 MeV.
