Abstract

Static quadrupole moments of the first excited states of

{}^{28}{Si}

,

{}^{32}S

, and

{}^{40}{Ar}

have been measured using the reorientation effect in projectile Coulomb excitation. The results obtained are

Q ({}^{28}{Si}, 2^{+}) = + 0.11 \pm 0.05

b,

Q ({}^{32}S, 2^{+}) = - 0.20 \pm 0.06

b, and

Q ({}^{40}{Ar}, 2^{+}) = + 0.01 \pm 0.04

b.
