The production of ^22Na in various astrophysical sites is of particular interest for gamma ray astronomy.The ^21Na(p,γ)^22Mg reaction rate plays a crucial role in the production of ^22Na during explosive hydrogen burning.The strengths of the resonances in this reaction that are expected to dominate the astrophysical reaction rate will be measured with the recoil separator facility, DRAGON, at TRIUMF/ISAC. These measurements will require a prior knowledge of precise excitation energies(<=10 keV) for all of the relevant states in ^22Mg in the region 5.5<=E_x<=6.3 MeV.A detailed examination of this region using the ^24Mg(p,t)^22Mg reaction at the CNS/University of Tokyo provided important new information, not only more precise excitation energies for previously known levels, but also clear evidence of the existence of additional states which seriously complicate the task of identifying the corresponding isobaric analogue states in the mirror nucleus, ^22Ne. A review of these measurements and their implications for future experiments will be presented.
