The Al/sup 27/( alpha ,3p)Mg/sup 28/ and Mg/sup 26/( alpha ,2p)Mg/sup 28/ reactions prod uced by the bombardment of aluminum and magnesium targets with 42 Mev He ions were studied. The excitation functions for these reactions are presented. At 40-Mev He-ion bombarding energy. the cross section for the ( alpha ,3p) is about 80 microbarns and the peak yield of the ( alpha ,2p) reaction observed at 34 Mev is 1.65 mb. Excitation functions are also given for the production of Na/sup 22/ from the bombardment of aluminum with 30 to 42 Mev He ions, which proceeds chiefly through the reaction Al/sup 27/( alpha ,24aan)Na/sup 24/, and of Na/sup 24/ from the bombardment of natural magnesium, primarily through the Mg/sup 25/( alpha , alpha p)Na/sup 24/ reaction.
