The level structure of {sup 25}Al has been studied at the ORNL Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility by measuring the angular and energy distributions of {alpha} particles from the {sup 28}Si(p,{alpha}){sup 25}Al reaction. Proton beams ({approx}10 nA) at laboratory energies of 40 and 42 MeV were generated by the 25 MV tandem accelerator and bombarded a natural silicon target (50 {mu}g/cm{sup 2}). Seventeen levels were observed and spins for several were constrained through a distorted-wave Born approximation analysis of the angular distributions.
