Abstract
One approach to studying chaos in quantum systems utilizes the statist ical behavior of eigenvalues. Such analyses require data of very high quality, since both completeness and purity are essential. The design of a Compton-suppressed gamma-ray spectrometer for the purpose of esta blishing a nearly complete level scheme in P-30 via the Si-29(p, gamma ) reaction is described. Design criteria and implementation are discus sed, and early results from the system are presented.
