Excited States ofSi29from an Investigation of theP31(d,α)Si29andSi28(d,p)Si29Reactions

Abstract

The alpha-particle groups from a thin target of zinc phosphate bombarded by 1.81-Mev deuterons have been studied with a high resolution magnetic spectrograph. Eight of the alpha-groups observed have been assigned to the previously unreported ${\mathrm{P}}^{31}(d,\alpha ){\mathrm{Si}}^{29}$ reaction, corresponding to the ground state and seven excited states of ${\mathrm{Si}}^{29}$ in a region of excitation of 0 to 5 Mev.
