Abstract
Angular distributions of the differential cross sections and analyzing powers of the (p,) and (p,) reactions leading to both discrete final states and the continuum have been measured at MeV. The two reactions exhibit quite similar selectivities and angular distributions. For the (p,Ne reaction, the strongest transitions are to known high spin states, which are favored by the high momentum transfer of the reaction. These states are presumed to have predominantly two-particle–one-hole configurations with respect to the target nucleus because of the two-nucleon nature of the reaction mechanism. It is conjectured that the states most strongly populated in the (p,Si reaction have a similar structure.
