Double differential cross-section angular distributions were measured for the [sup 32]S ([ital n],[ital p])[sup 32]P charge exchange reaction in the 0[degree][le][theta][sub lab][le]14[degree] angular range. All data presented here were measured simultaneously covering indicent neutron energies between 60 and 220 MeV using the white neutron source at Los Alamos Meson Physics Facility--Weapons Neutron Research. The Gamow-Teller strengths obtained from a multipole decomposition analysis of these [sup 32]S([ital n],[ital p])[sup 32]P data are compared to previously reported [sup 32]S([ital p],[ital n])[sup 32]Cl results as well as to calculated Gamow-Teller strengths obtained using the shell-model code OXBASH and random phase approximation (RPA) calculations. The resultant gian dipole and giant spin-dipole cross sections obtained from this multipole decomposition analysis are also compared with distorted-wave impulse approximations calculated with densities obtained from a simple one-particle--one hole shell model and also densities obtained from RPA calculations.
