A feasibility study was undertaken for the measurement of the resonance at E(r) = 545 keV in the N-13(p,gamma)O-14 reaction, using intense radioactive ion beams. The analog resonance at E(r) = 512 keV in C-12(p,gamma)N-14 was chosen as a test case, leading to improved knowledge of the resonance parameters. Thin- and thick-target yields were obtained with C-13 beams on an extended gas target and a polyethylene foil, respectively. In addition, thin and thick targets of enriched C-13 were irradiated with proton beams. Normalization problems arising with mixed ion beams (N-13/C-13) are discussed.
