Abstract

With the 4 He( 16 O,γ) 20 Ne capture reaction, the 8 + , 11.948 MeV level in 20 Ne was observed as a resonance in the yield of γ-rays corresponding to the 8 + → 6 + transition. A strength, ωγ = 104 ± 35 MeV was obtained for the resonance which gives 7.5 ± 2.5 W.u. for the 8 + → 6 + transition probability establishing the 11.948 MeV level as the 8 + member of the ground state band. The experimental E 2 transition probabilities in the ground state band of 20 Ne deviate strongly from those of the pure rotational model, but agree reasonably well with the predictions of the SU 3 shell model.
