The Coulomb excitation of rotational states in heavy-ion collisions is considered on the basis of the uniform semiclassical approximation. Included in the Hamiltonian of the system in question, besides the Coulomb forces (the monopole, quadrupole, and hexadecapole forces), is a real internuclear potential in the form of a deformed Woods-Saxon potential. It is shown that the excitation probability depends strongly on the interference between the Coulomb and nuclear interactions. Calculations are carried out for the reaction /sup 40/Ar+/sup 162/Dy at E = 148.6 MeV, and satisfactory agreement is obtained between the computed Coulomb excitation probabilities and the corresponding experimental quantities.
