Angular distributions of protons emitted from ground and isomeric states in oriented nuclei are calculated. Odd-Z, odd-A proton emitting nuclei are considered in this work. The shape of the angular distributions shows strong dependence with the angular momentum carried away by the proton. They can be used potentially as a spectroscopic tool.
