The angular distributions of protons scattered elastically and inelastically by Ne 20 and Ne 22 have been observed at six energies from 4.95 to 5.50 Mev. The shape of angular distribution of inelastically scattered protons varies rapidly with incident energy in boths eases of Ne 20 and Ne 22 . An anomaly is found at 5.25 Mev in the reaction Ne 20 ( p , p ')Ne 20 ( Q = -1.63 Mev). The elastic scatterings also exhibit the corresponding features. These results suggest that the reaction proceeds mainly through the compound nucleus formation process. The spin and parity of the compound state seem likely to be 5/2(+).
