Description
The (t,α) reaction has been carried out on the actinide targets 234U and 244Pu using a 17 MeV beam of 80% polarized tritons. The residual nucleus 233Pa has been previously studied and serves to calibrate the trends of the analyzing power for known spin states. Twenty-two energy levels were observed in 243Np, a nucleus previously unreported, and a number of spin assignments are suggested. The observed analyzing powers are very similar to those previously measured in the lead nuclei, permitting the use of empirical spin determinations over a wide range of nuclei
