Wiescher, Görres, and Thielemann suggested that a "missing" J3 level in Ne18 should occur at Ex4.33 MeV, only 410 keV above the F17p threshold. They noted that this level would provide an s-wave resonance in the F17(p) reaction, greatly increasing its thermonuclear reaction rate. This, in turn, would have a pronounced effect on the production of O17 and O18 in explosive stellar environments. We have searched for this level using the O16(He3, n) reaction. High-resolution time-of-flight spectra show that the 3+ level occurs at Ex=4.5610.009 MeV, 230 keV higher than suggested. The astrophysical consequences of this result are discussed. © 1991 The American Physical Society.
