Isobaric-Analog Studies withAg107andAg109

Abstract
Proton-induced analog resonance reactions have been studied using the targets Ag107 and Ag109. Excitation functions were measured for the elastic and inelastic scattering of protons at laboratory angles of 90°, 120°, 150°, and 170° in the proton energy range from 5.9 to 7.25 MeV. Excitation functions for the (p,n) reaction were measured at an angle of 90° over the same energy range. Resonance energies, widths, and proton orbital-angular-momenta transfer values have been obtained by analysis of the data. Comparisons have been made with previous (p,n) and (d,p) measurements on the same target nuclei.
