Abstract

Excitation functions were measured at forward angles for the reaction ${}^{24}{Mg}$ ( ${}^{16}O$ , ${}^{12}C$ ) ${}^{28}{Si}$ to the ground and first excited states of ${}^{28}{Si}$ . Resonancelike structures were found in both excitation functions with pronounced maxima at center-of-mass energies of ∼ 28, ∼ 31, and ∼ 34 MeV. Angular distributions obtained at these three energies are fitted rather well with ${P_{L}}^{2} (cos θ)$ with $L = 21, 23, and 25$ , respectively.
