Abstract

The 16O( p, p′ ) reaction was studied with a 35 MeV polarized proton beam. The cross sections and analyzing powers for excited states in 16O up to and including the 2 −, T = 1 state at 12.97 MeV were measured and compared with DWBA calculations. Both density-independent and densitydependent effective interactions were used in the calculations. Transition densities calculated using shell-model amplitudes and Woods-Saxon single-particle wave functions give poor accounts of the data. The use of macroscopic transition densities obtained from electron scattering data give a much better description of the data, especially when used in combination with the densitydependent interaction.
