Nuclear physicists are enthusiastically exploiting their new ability to observe states whose isobaric spins are higher by one or two units than the ground state in light nuclei. During the past few years experimenters have located the lower (where low‐lying states are 1/2) and (where low lying states are 0) states in most of the light nuclei. Since excited states are spread widely in energy in the light nuclei, high T states occur at high energy, and to produce them one needs an electrostatic accelerator (4–20 MeV) or an intermediate‐energy cyclotron (about 50 MeV) with good energy resolution.
