Excitation of(p32)−1and(p12)−1hole states in theO16(π+,p)O15reaction at 66 MeV

Abstract
Angular distributions have been measured at 66 MeV for the O16(π+,p)O15 reaction leading to the (p32)1 hole state at 6.18 MeV and the (p12)1 hole ground state of O15. The ratio of the two differential cross sections lies between 6 and 13 over the whole measured angular range. A comparison is made with preliminary calculations of Miller. At 45° and 105° a measurement has also been performed on the reaction O16(π,p)C15 at the same incident energy.
