Abstract

We have observed the broad $2^{+}$ member of the $K^{π}$ ${= 0}_{4}^{+}$ band of ${}^{20}{Ne}$ with the ${}^{20}{Ne}$ ( $π^{+}$ , $π^{+}$ ’) reaction at $T_{π}$ =120 and 180 MeV and with ${}^{20}{Ne}$ ( $π^{-}$ , $π^{-}$ ’) at $T_{π}$ =180 MeV. We find an excitation energy of 9.00±0.18 MeV and a width of 0.8 MeV. The B(E2↑) is determined to be approximately 25 to 35 $e^{2}$ ${fm}^{4}$ .
