contents The $γ$-ray strength function of medium-mass neutron rich nuclei $^{72}$Ga has been extracted from the statistical Hauser-Feshbach analysis of the available capture data of $^{71}\mathrm{Ga}(n,γ){}^{72}\mathrm{Ga}$ over the 0.01 - 3 MeV energy range with the required nuclear level density (NLD) of the $^{72}$Ga constraint from the work of R. Santra et al.,[\href{https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevC.107.064611}{Physical Review C 107, 064611 (2023)}]. The Gogny D1M model for the E1 and M1 strength functions, including low-energy upbends of $^{72}$Ga nuclei, is experimentally constrained in the present work. Subsequently, the Maxwellian-averaged cross section(MACS) of $^{71}\mathrm{Ga}$ has been reevaluated based on the present $γ$-ray strength function. It is found that the present MACS value at \(kT = 30\) keV is 115.35$^{+11.92}_{-10.44}$ mb, which is consistent with previous work.
