Phys. Rev. Lett. 26, 1271–1274 (1971)High-Spin States in 24MgReceived 12 April 1971; published in the issue dated 17 May 1971 Angular correlation measurements involving the reaction 16O(12C,α)24Mg*→α+20Ne*, leaving 20Ne in its first excited state, have been used to study several highly excited states in 24Mg. The method was tested using the known 8+ state at 14.14 MeV. The results indicate that the triplet of states at 16.30, 16.55, and 16.84 MeV all have high spin (probably 8, 9, or 10). In the analysis it was assumed that the decay proceeds by the lowest allowed L value. © 1971 The American Physical Society URL:
