Constraining {sup 26}Al+{ital p} resonances using {sup 26}Al({sup 3}He,{ital d}){sup 27}Si

The {sup 26}Al({sup 3}He,{ital d}){sup 27}Si reaction was measured from 0{degree}{le}{theta}{sub c.m.}{le}35{degree} at {ital E}({sup 3}He)=20 MeV using a quadrupole-dipole-dipole-dipole magnetic spectrometer. States in {sup 27}Si were observed above the background at 7652 and 7741 keV and upper limits were set for the state at 7592 keV. Implications for the {sup 26}Al({ital p},{gamma}){sup 27}Si stellar reaction rate are discussed. {copyright} {ital 1996 The American Physical Society.}
