Assignment of Angular Momenta to the Energy Levels ofF17

Abstract
An analysis of data on the elastic scattering and capture of protons by oxygen was made for the purpose of assigning angular momenta to certain energy levels in F17. The elastic scattering data were analyzed using a graphic method wherein the phase and amplitude of the refracted partial waves are represented by vectors in the complex plane. As the proton energy is varied over a resonance, a circular locus is obtained for the vector which represents the component of a partial wave which excites the resonance.
