Abstract

The 24Mg( α, α') 24Mg reaction to the 1.37 MeV state has been studied over an α-energy range of 9.625–13.825 MeV, in ≈40 keV steps, and over a 25°–160° angular interval. These cross sections have been analysed in terms of statistical theory and a number of deviations from its predictions are found. These deviations point to the importance of non-statistical processes, such as intermediate structure, to the α-scattering. The average compound nuclear width o 1 62±7 keV is found for 28Si over the 18–22 MeV excitation.
