The experimental data of the 28 Si(α, t) 29 P and 28 Si(α, 3 He) 29 Si reactions at 45 MeV have been analysed in terms of full finite-range coupled-channels calculations. In the calculations, the reaction paths, direct and two step via the inelastic states of the initial and final nuclei have been treated in terms of the finite-range transfer theory. The spectroscopic amplitudes connecting the deformed initial and final nuclei in both the reactions are obtained from Nilsson's model. The data of both the reactions, populating the 1/2 + , 3/2 + and 5/2 + states in the K π = 1/2 + band and the 3/2 + and 5/2 + states in the K π = 3/2 + band, are best described by about 20% mixing of between the two bands. The effects of normal Woods-Saxon (WS), squared WS and molecular type of α-nucleus potentials are also discussed.
