Abstract

The (p, n) reactions on 19F and 39K targets have been studied at 120 MeV and 160 MeV using the Indiana University Cyclotron time-of-flight facility. States up to 12 MeV excitation energy have been observed and angular distributions for these neutron groups are presented. The ground-state mirror transitions have accurately measured ft values. This information is used to normalize the zero-degree energy spectra to a scale of Gamow-Teller (GT) transition probability to obtain GT strenghts to excited states. The experimental sum GT strengths are smaller than the sum-rule-limit values showing strong evidence for GT quenching.
