Abstract
The Isoscalar Giant Quadrupole Resonance (ISGQR) in low-mass nuclei has
been investigated in high energy-resolution experiments using proton inelastic
scattering at Ep equals to 200 MeV. The measurements extend and complete the
investigation already undertaken for medium and heavy-mass nuclei using the
K600 magnetic spectrometer and a proton beam from the K200 Separated
Sector Cyclotron (SSC) facility of iThemba LABS, South Africa.
