Study of the ReactionC12(d, p)C13with the Weak

Abstract

Predictions of the weakly-bound-projectile model are compared with measured differential cross sections, polarization, and vector-analyzing power for the reactions C 12 (d, p)C ls {g.s.) at deuteron energies between 7.0 and 26 MeV, and C 12 {d, p]) C 13 *(3.09 MeV) between 10 and 15 MeV. All the measurements are accounted for without any compound-nucleus resonance effects. It is suggested that previous failures to fit such data with the distorted-wave Born approximation stemf romits inadequate description of the stripping mechanism.
