Observation of giant resonances in /sup 24/,/sup 25/,/sup 26/Mg and /sup 27/Al by inelastic. cap alpha. scattering. [106, 120, 145, 172. 5 MeV]

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
The E2 giant-resonance region in sd-shell nuclei was studied by inelastic scattering of 106-, 120-, 145-, and 172.5-MeV ..cap alpha.. particles. Strong excitation in this region was observed for all investigated nuclei (/sup 24/,/sup 25/,/sup 26/Mg and /sup 27/Al) at the higher incident energies. At lower incident energies, the tail of the giant resonance tends to be obscured by another broad distribution. In the E2 giant-resonance region, there is more fine structure in the Mg isotopes than in /sup 27/Al. (AIP)
