Abstract

The possibility that large contributions to the observed F/sup 19/ transition rates might arise from second order Coulomb excitation stimulated this investigation. Employing computer calculations of the second order Coulomb excitation cross section formulas previously derived, it was shown that in heavy ion collisions such as were involved in F/sup 19/ studies, second order effects may be comparable in magnitude to first order effects and through their interference with first order ones, may permit measurement of transition probabilities sometimes unattainable by other means.
