Level structure ofMn54from theFe56(p, He3)reaction at 40.2 MeV

Abstract
The Fe56(p, He3)Mn54 reaction has been studied at an incident energy of 40.2 MeV. Levels up to 6.16 MeV of excitation have been observed with an energy resolution of 25 keV. The experimental angular distributions have been analyzed with the distorted-wave Born approximation. Several L assignments have been made which, when compared to other experimental data, permitted new spin assignments. A comparison with theoretical calculations is also presented.
