Abstract
The reaction has been investigated at 30, 60, and 150 degrees in the laboratory system by the method of proton recoils in thick nuclear emulsions. The energy of the incident protons was 17.3±0.1 Mev, and the thickness of the melamine target was 0.2 Mev. The results indicate a ground-state value of -6.03±0.2 Mev, yielding a mass defect for of 12.2 Mev, in good agreement with beta-decay results. The data also indicate levels in at excitation energies greater than 5.5 Mev.
