Description

Using a 33 MeV proton beam with our Enge split-pole spectrograph, we measured the Q0 values of the 24Mg(p,t)22Mg and 28Si(p,t)26Si reactions relative to that of the 16O(p,t)14O reaction. Data were obtained at scattering angles of 15 deg. and 25 deg. Based on the masses of 24Mg, 28Si, 16O, 14O,p, and t, we determined the mass excesses of 22Mg and 26Si to be -400.5(1.0) and -7139.5(1.0) keV, respectively. Our result for the mass of 22Mg is in excellent agreement with recent high-precision measurements
