Using the 27Al(3He, t)27Si reaction, we have located and measured accurate excitation energies for seven states in 27Si between the 26Al + p threshold and the lowest observed 26Al(p, γ)27Si resonance. By examining the mirror states in 27Al via the 27Mg(3He, d)27Al and 26Mg(α, t)27Al reactions, we find that in the 26AI + p channel there can be at most only one s-wave resonance that lies below the lowest directly observed resonance; this possible l = 0 resonance most probably corresponds to either the 7589, 7557 or 7533 keV state in 27Si. The remaining six states are most probably formed via l >= 2 proton capture. Upper limits for the reduced proton widths of these states have been used to estimate an upper limit for the 26Al(p, γ)27Si thermonuclear reaction rate.
