Abstract: | Excitation functions were measured from 0.7 to 2.2 MeV for the α0 -, α1-, α2- and α3-groups at an angle ofθL=90°. Two broad maxima were found in all four cases, suggesting the existance of resonances in the13C-compound nucleus. A problem, however, arises, as the first maximum appears at a bombarding energy of 1.15 MeV for the α0- and α1-groups, whilst it is shifted to 1.35 MeV in the excitation curves for the α2- and α3-groups. The second maximum appears at 1.85 MeV in all curves. Angular distributions were measured at 7 energies between 1.0 and 2.2 MeV for the α0- and α2-transitions. The coefficients of the first four Legendre polinomials, describing these distributions, are given. |
