High-J states in Na23

The $^{12}\\mathrm{C}$($^{12}\\mathrm{C}$,p) reaction, at a bombarding energy of 39.0 MeV, has been used to locate candidates for high-spin states. Angular distributions and angle-integrated cross sections are presented for 43 levels (or groups of levels) of which at least 10 probably have $J\\ensuremath{\\ge}\\frac{9}{2}$.
