Background: The anomalous ²²Ne abundance measured in certain presolar graphite grains is thought to arise from the decay of ²²Na that was synthesized at high temperatures in core-collapse supernovae. To better interpret this abundance anomaly, the primary destruction mechanism of ²²Na, the ²²Na(p,γ)²³Mg reaction, must be better understood. Purpose: Determine proton branching ratios of several ²³Mg excited states that play a role in the high-temperature ²²Na(p,γ)²³Mg reaction rate. Methods: Particle decays of ²³Mg excited states populated with the previously reported ²⁴Mg(p,d)²³Mg transfer reaction measurement [Kwag et al., Eur. Phys. J. A 56, 108 (2020)] were analyzed to extract proton branching ratios. The reaction was studied using a 31-MeV proton beam from the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility of Oak Ridge National Laboratory and ²⁴Mg solid targets. Results: Proton branching ratios of several ²³Mg excited states in the energy range of Ex = 8.044 - 9.642 MeV were experimentally determined for the first time for the p0 and p1'(p1+p2+p3) decay channels. Conclusions: These new branching ratios for²³Mg levels can provide an experimental foundation for an improved high-temperature rate of the ²²Na(p,γ)²³Mg reaction needed to understand production of anomalously high ²²Ne abundance in core-collapse supernovae.
