Abstract

The excitation function for the

J^{π} = {\frac{11}{2}}^{+}

state at

E_{x} = 4.51

MeV in the

{}^{12}C ({}^{16}O, p) {}^{27}{Al}

reaction exhibits resonance-like behavior (

Γ \approx 300

keV) at

E_{c . m .} = 11.83

and 14.36 MeV. Proton-

γ

coincidence measurements performed at these energies verify that the 4.510 MeV state is preferentially populated instead of lower spin states at this excitation energy. The "anomalies" occur at center-of-mass energies similar to those of reported anomalies for high spin states in the

{}^{12}C ({}^{12}C, p) {}^{23}{Na}

reaction.
