Abstract

The reaction 14C(α, α)14C has been studied over the bombarding energy range 3.5 to 16.5 MeV. Yield curves at eight angles were measured over the entire energy range; angular distributions were measured on resonances in the energy region below 8 MeV. Measurement was made of the relative yield from the reaction 14C(α, n)17O from 4.9 to 8.5 MeV. Seventeen new levels have been observed and spin and parity assignments made for a majority of these. Evidence for the existence of rotational bands in 18O is discussed.
