Title: A study of the Fermi (0+) transition in {sup 14}C(p,n){sup 14}N at 495 MeV

Differential cross sections and analyzing powers have been measured for the {sup 14}C(p,n) {sup 14}N (IAS) reaction with a proton energy of 495 MeV and an angular distribution of 0{sub lab} = 0{degrees} to 10{degrees} (q = 0.0 to 0.956 fm{sup -1}) at the LAMPF Neutron Time-of-Flight Facility (NTOF). Previous A, results for targets with mixed Fermi and Gamow-Teller (AJ{close_quote} = 0+ and 1+) transitions are not well re-produced with either DWIA of RIA calculations. The {open_quotes}C target offers the best opportunity to study a Fermi transition (2.31 MeV) separated from the nearest GT strength (3.95 MeV). The results compare favorably with calculations. These will be presented, and the implications for mixed transitions will be discussed.
