Abstract

Angular distributions of neutron groups from the 26Mg( 3He, n) 28Si reaction have been measured at bombarding energies of 23.1 and 45.5 MeV. The experimental results are compared with DWBA and coupled-channel calculations. The zero-range DWBA calculation using shell-model two-nucleon spectroscopic amplitudes explains rather well most of the experimental data of the lowest four states in 28Si, but it is necessary to take two-step processes into account to reproduce all of them satisfactorily. A strong neutron group observed at about 6.9 MeV in residual excitation is described as one composed of unresolved four groups, of which three are attributed to positive-parity states in 28Si predicted in this energy region by the shell-model calculation and one to the 6.88 MeV 3 − state in 28Si.
