The measurement and analysis of the differential cross sections for the elastic and inelastic scattering to the lowest 2/sup +/ states of /sup 24/Mg and /sup 28/Si using /sup 24/Mg and /sup 28/Si beams in conjunction with /sup 208/Pb targets are reported. The incident beam energies were 145 MeV for /sup 24/Mg and 162 MeV for /sup 28/Si. The measured cross sections were analyzed using coupled channels calculations assuming a rotational model description for the low-lying collective states of /sup 24/Mg and /sup 28/Si. The coupled channels calculations are compared with polarization potential calculations in which the experimental B(E2) values are used in both cases. The extracted deformation lengths and deformation parameters are compared to those obtained using similar data with light projectiles, although because of strong Coulomb excitation the present calculations are fairly insensitive to the nuclear deformation parameters.
