Abstract

The reactions ${}^{14}C (p, γ) {}^{15}N$ and ${}^{14}C (p, p) {}^{14}C$ have been studied in the energy region $0.6 < E_{p} < 2.7$ MeV. Particular attention was directed to a level which is produced at $E_{p} = 2.49$ MeV ( $E_{x} = 12.54$ MeV); this level is distinct from a frequently observed level at $E_{x} = 12.51$ MeV. It is concluded on the basis of a dispersion-theory fit to the scattering data that the 12.54-MeV level has $T = \frac{3}{2}$ , $J = {\frac{5}{2}}^{+}$ , and that it is the analog of the first excited state in ${}^{15}C$ .
