Abstract

The two lowest T = 32 states in 21Na have been observed as narrow scattering anomalies in 20Ne(p, p)20Ne, using a differentially-pumped gas target. The observed resonance energies are Ep = 6.872 ± 0.005 MeV and Ep = 7.128 ± 0.005 MeV corresponding to Ex = 8.973 ± 0.007 MeV and Ex = 9.217 ± 0.007 MeV in 21Na. No other narrow scattering anomaly was found in the proton laboratory energy range 6.76–7.33 MeV although six anomalies of width greater than 13 keV were seen. From an analysis of the data using single level dispersion theory the following parameters were extracted for the T = 32 states: for the 8.973 MeV state, Jπ = 52+ (or 32+), ⊥total < 1.2 keV, ⊥po = 0.10 ± 0.05 keV and, for the 9.217 MeV state, jπ = if12+, ⊥total = 2.3 ± 0. 5keV and ⊥Po = 1.1 ± 0.3 keV.
