Abstract

For the inelastic scattering of ${}^{13}C$ from ${}^{12}C$ , we have calculated the population probability $P_{1}$ for obtaining ${}^{12}C^{*}$ ${(2}^{+}$ ,4.44 MeV) with ‖m‖=1 and ${}^{13}C$ in its ground state. Multistep processes involving the transfer of a neutron were able to produce values of $P_{1}$ of comparable magnitude to the data. There was, however, considerable sensitivity to the optical parameters and this is discussed.
