Abstract

Protons of energy about 17.8 MeV were scattered from targets of 58Ni, 60Ni and 120Sn. Precise angular distributions were obtained over the angular range 20°–170° for most of the lowlying excited states in each nucleus. Also, 50 MeV α-particles were scattered from 58Ni to determine the spin-parity assignments for a number of levels. Using these assignments, it was found that the 58Ni proton scattering angular distributions for levels with the same spin and parity demonstrated definite similarities. Optical-model studies were made for the proton elastic scattering data, and the resulting potentials were used to obtain satisfactory DWBA predictions for the collective 2+ and 3 levels. The proton scattering angular distributions for many of the weaker levels were also found to resemble strongly the collective model DWBA predictions.
