We have determined the energy gaps of both prominent sequences of fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) states at filling factor ν=p/(2p±1) around ν=1/2. The gaps increase linearly with ΔB, the deviation of the magnetic field from half filling. Therefore, the data are indistinguishable from Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations of particles of charge e, effective mass m * , and lifetime broadening Γ exposed to an effective magnetic field ΔB. Our findings are remarkably consistent with recent proposals of composite particles in the FQHE and the existence of a Fermi surface at even-denominator fillings
