^18F is a relatively long-lived radioactive product of novae and its decay series is a direct probe of novae burning. The ^18F(p,α)^15O reaction dominates ^18F destruction in novae but the rate is uncertain because the properties of important ^19Ne levels have never been experimentally determined. There are several levels with uncertain spins and excitation energies that have only been estimated before. At ORNL, the ^20Ne(p,d)^ 19Ne reaction was measured to study these important levels by using a 30 MeV beam of protons from the HRIBF tandem accelerator was used to bombard a carbon target implanted with ^20Ne and outgoing particles were detected in a silicon strip detector array. Data will be shown and analysis discussed.
