ENERGY LEVELS OF Na$sup 22$ FROM THE Mg$sup 24$(d,$alpha$)Na$sup 22$ AND Mg$sup 25$(p,$alpha$)Na$sup 22$ REACTIONS

Journal Article · · Nuclear Phys.

Energy levels of Na/sup 22/ were observed with the Mg/sup 24/ (d, alpha )Na/sup 22/ and Mg/sup 25/(p, alpha )Na/sup 22/ reactions. Bombarding energies in the range of 5.0 to 7.5 Mev were used, and the alpha particles were recorded with a broad-range spectrograph. Ground state Q-values are 1.954 plus or minus 0.007 Mev for the first and -3.153 Mev for the second reaction. Excited states, presumably with isobaric spin zero, were found at 0.585, 0.893, 1.533, 1.944, 1.990, 4.323 plus or minus 0.008, and 4.472 plus or minus 0.008 Mev (all plus or minus 0.005 except where shown otherwise) using the (d, alpha ) reaction. The first and second of these were also seen through the (p, alpha ) reaction and, in addition, a T = 1 state at 0.661 plus or minus 0.008 Mev. The ground state Q-value for the N/sup 14/(p, alpha ) C/sup 11/ reaction was found to be - 2.928 Mev. (auth)
