Abstract
We present differential cross sections and complete sets of polarization-transfer coefficients, obtained in the reaction studied at 197 MeV incident proton energy and laboratory angles between and These complete sets of polarization observables are used to obtain spin-longitudinal and spin-transverse components for transitions to the ground state, to the first, and to the unresolved second and third excited states in at 2.36 MeV and respectively. The results are used to obtain the two contributions for the ground and first excited state transitions and are compared with corresponding distorted-wave impulse approximation (DWIA) calculations. In particular, empirical angular distribution values for the unique spin-longitudinal transition to the first excited state in are obtained and compared with DWIA calculations.
