Abstract

Angular distributions obtained in a study of the ${}^{25}{Mg} ({}^{6}{Li}, d)$ reaction at $E_{Li} = 36$ MeV are characterized by the lowest allowed $L$ transfers for cluster transitions to the members of the ground-state rotational band of ${}^{29}{Si}$ , while a mixture of $L$ values is required for states of the $K = {\frac{3}{2}}^{+}$ excited band. This demonstrates that an $α$ -transfer reaction can probe the internal structure of the nucleus in a way that can be deciphered.
