Popis: The excitation of collective states in spherical nuclei is investigated in interactions with ≈ 1 GeV protons. Collective states of dipole and quadrupole type in a large energy range, including the isoscalar and isovector giant resonances, are considered. The cross sections for proton-nucleus interactions are found within the single-inelastic-scattering approximation of Glauber theory with the use of semi-microscopic nuclear wave functions. The largest probability of excitation is proved to take place for states of isoscalar type. Isovector states are strongly suppressed. It is shown that 1 GeV proton inelastic scattering can be used for the excitation of giant resonances of isoscalar type. The probability of their excitation is of the same order as that for low-lying collective states.
