Resumo

A method is presented for obtaining unbiased estimates of nuclear strength functions from experimental data. The model is based on the assumption that observed reduced neutron widths have a Porter-Thomas distribution and that the level spacing are distributed according to Wigner's surmise. Detailed attention is paid to estimate accuracies and a simple technique for calculating 68% confidence limits is provided. Numerical results are given for the isotopes 69, 71Ga, 75As, 90, 92, 94, 96Zr and 92, 94, 96Mo.
