The 2.23-Mev excited state of P31 has been studied by means of the capture gamma rays from the 1.70-Mev resonance in the reaction Si30(pγ)P31. The angular correlation of the ground state gamma ray established that the resonance had total angular momentum 3/2, and triple correlation measurements of the cascading gamma rays from the compound state showed that the angular momentum of the 2.23-Mev state was 5/2. Coincidence measurements showed that the cascade gamma rays from the 2.23-Mev state to the first excited state at 11.27-Mev were [Formula: see text] of the transitions to the ground state.

Protons of 7.1 Mev. energy from the MIT cyclotron have been used to investigate the angular distribution of gamma rays from the C12(p,p′γ) reaction with respect to the incoming proton beam. These gamma rays result from transitions between the first excited state of C12 at 4.45 Mev. and the ground state. The resulting distribution can be fitted by the expansion[Formula: see text]which is consistent with an assignment of two for the angular momentum of the first excited state of C12.

Yield Curves

From a recent experiment in this laboratory (Shute et al. 1962) on the elastic scattering of protons from 12C, resonance levels (E13N, J1t) of 13N were obtained at the laboratory bombarding energies (Ep) shown in Table 1. To confirm these results, an investigation of the yield and angular distribution of gamma rays from the reaction 12C(p'YO)13N and 12C(p'Yl)13N was undertaken. Accordingly, the theoretical angular distributions, W(8), for the gamma ray (Yo) to the ground state of 13Na-) and also for the gamma ray (Yl) to the 1st excited state of 13Na+) were evaluated on the assumptions that overlap of levels in 13N is small and lowest order multipoles are involved. As angular distributions are parity insensitive, these were found to be identical for the two gamma rays expected. The simpler of these angular distributions are also shown on the table. The expected angular distributions indicate that 90� is a suitable angle for yield curves.

Radiation from proton capture in 7Li is known to consist of two principal components of energy (17�2+~.Ep) and (14'3+~Ep)MeV, corresponding to transitions to the ground state and first excited state of sBe respectively (Walker and McDaniel 1948). Resonances in the reaction are known to exist at Ep=441 keY, 1�03 and 2�1 MeV (Bonner and Evans 1948; Kraus 1954; Price 1954) and the relative intensity of the two y-rays is known to vary in the neighbourhood of the 441 keY resonance (Campbell 1956). It is not known if the intensity ratio varies in the region of the 1030 keY resonance and this experiment was designed to repeat the measurements of Campbell and extend the investigation to the higher resonance.

A search has been made with a Ge(Li) detector for weak gamma-ray transitions in 60Ni following the beta decay of 60Co. Observation of a gamma ray of energy 2158.8 ± 0.4 keV and intensity of about 10−5 per disintegration has confirmed that the 2159-keV level of 60Ni is populated in about 10−4 of the disintegrations. A much stronger peak at 822 keV has been shown to be the single-escape peak of the 1332-keV gamma ray rather than the (2159 → 1332) transition as claimed by Hansen and Spernol. The search for other weak gamma rays in 60Ni was inconclusive, and the mechanism for feeding the 2159-keV level is not clear. As a byproduct of this investigation, the energy of the first excited state of 64Ni is found to be 1345.9 ± 0.3 keV.

Levels at 6.69, 6.88, and 6.89 MeV were observed in the 16O(16O, α)28Si reaction, and angular correlations were measured for the resulting gamma-ray transitions, using the geometry in which the alpha particle is detected at 0°. The level at 6.69 MeV had not been reported previously and was assigned spin and parity 0+. The doublet of levels at 6.88–6.89 MeV was not resolved in these measurements, but angular correlations of the gamma-ray transitions were possible, using spectrum subtraction techniques. One member of the doublet, previously assigned spin 3, has a strong ground-state transition; the angular correlation for this transition confirms a 3− assignment to this level. The other member of the doublet, which decays almost entirely to the first excited state, could not be assigned a spin on the basis of these measurements. However, taken in conjunction with other measurements, an assignment of 4+ is favored.

A study has been made of several high spin members of the ground state (Kπ = 1/2+) and first-excited state (Kπ = 3/2+) rotational bands in the presumed oblate nucleus 29Si. Gamma-ray angular distribution and linear polarization measurements have confirmed the spin and parity of the 4081 keV level to be 7/2+, and levels at 4742 and 5283 keV have been shown to have Jπ = 9/2+ and (7/2+, 3/2+) respectively. Branching and mixing ratios for the transitions from these states have also been determined; in conjunction with previously measured lifetimes, transition strengths are calculated. The results are compared with the predictions of a Nilsson-model calculation including the effects of coriolis mixing of the low-lying positive parity bands.

Crossover Transition

In the electron-capture decay of 144Pm prepared by (p, 2n) reaction on enriched 145Nd, it is shown that, in addition to the well-known energy levels at 696, 1313, and 1789 keV, two new levels exist, one at 2093 keV, and another at 1509 keV. The state at 2093 keV deexcites with the emission of a 304-keV gamma ray to the 6+ level at 1789 keV, and by a crossover transition to the 4+ level at 1313 keV with the emission of a 780-keV gamma ray. The level at 1509 keV leads to the first excited state (2+) at 696 keV with the emission of a gamma ray of energy 813 keV. The intensities of the 780-, 304-, and 813-keV gamma rays are, respectively, 1.5, ≈ 0.1, and 0.5% of that of the 696-keV gamma ray.

Three Components

The nuclear gamma radiation following the non-resonant capture of a proton in O16 has been studied with protons of energies, from 800 kev. to 2.1 Mev. and found to consist of three components. The main transition goes, via a gamma ray of energy that varies with proton bombarding energy, to the [Formula: see text] state of F17. This state, 487 kev. above the ground state, radiates directly to the ground state. In addition there is a weaker direct radiative transition from the capture configuration to the ground state. At energies above Ep = 1.8 Mev. oxide targets bombarded with protons give rise to a radiation of 873 kev. attributed to the presence of the O17 isotope via the reaction O17(p, p′)O17*, the radiation corresponding to the transition from the first excited state of O17 to the ground state.

The angular distributions of the Li7(t, α)He6 reactions have been measured between 41° and 139° to the beam in the laboratory system. The distribution of the 5.95 Mev. α-particles associated with the formation of ground state He6 is of the form [Formula: see text] in the center of mass system. The 4.95 Mev. α-particles associated with the formation of the first excited state of He6 are distributed isotropically within ±8%. These results are consistent with the expectation that the ground state of He6 has spin 0 and the first excited state spin 2 and suggest that the compound state, Be10, has J = 2.
