The /sup 40/Ca(p,n)/sup 40/Sc reaction was studied at 134 MeV. Neutron energy spectra were measured by the time-of-flight technique with resolutions of 220 keV at angles from 0"0 to 41"0 and 415 keV out to 62"0. The 2"-,3"-,4"-,5"- band of states based on the (f/sub 7/2/,d/sub 3/2//sup -1/) 1p1h structure was observed at low excitation energies, in good agreement with known analog states in /sup 40/Ca and /sup 40/K. The shapes of the cross-section and analyzing-power angular distributions are in good agreement with distorted-wave impulse-approximation calculations using simple 1p1h (Tamm-Dancoff approximation) shell-model wave functions. A relatively strong transition to a state at E/sub x/ = 2.3 MeV with L = 3 is identified tentatively as a 4"- state with the predominant 1p1h structure (1f/sub 7/2/,2s/sub 1/2//sup -1/).
