A measurement of resonant elastic scattering of {sup 26}Si+p was performed with a thick target using a {sup 26}Si radioactive ion beam at the CRIB (CNS Radioactive Ion Beam separator) of the Center for Nuclear Study (CNS), the University of Tokyo. The excitation function of {sup 27}P was measured successfully with the inverse kinematics method through a covered the range of excitation energies from E{sub x}{approx} 2.3 to 3.8 MeV, providing information about the resonance structure of this nucleus. The properties of these resonances are important to better determine the production rates of {sup 26}Si(p,g){sup 27}P reaction, which is one of the astrophysically important nuclear reactions to understand the production of the {sup 26}Al. Some new resonant states have been investigated, and determined their resonance parameters, such as excitation energies, proton partial widths, and spin-parities by R-matrix calculation.
