[en] This thesis describes the theory concerning DWBA and CCBA calculations and shows how the obtained deformation parameters can be converted into isoscalar transition rates and energy weighted sum rule strength. It describes the experimental method used for measuring inelastically scattered alpha particles. In addition the way the spectra have been analysed is described. It describes the experimental results and DWBA analysis of the angular distributions. In addition a coupled channel analysis is given for some strongly coupled states. (Auth.)
