Deuteron Stripping Reaction onMg26

Abstract

The reaction ${\mathrm{Mg}}^{26}(d, p){\mathrm{Mg}}^{27}$ was studied at several bombarding energies between 3.0 and 5.1 MeV. Angular distributions were measured for the transitions to the ground and first three excited states in ${\mathrm{Mg}}^{27}$. Absolute spectroscopic factors were calculated using the distorted-wave Born approximation, and the dependence of these results on a lower cutoff radius was investigated. The results are compared to those for the $K=\frac{1}{2}$ band in ${\mathrm{Mg}}^{25}$.
