Angular Distributions of Protons and Tritons from Deuteron-Induced Reactions onBe9

Abstract

The angular distributions and absolute cross sections for the reactions ${\mathrm{Be}}^9\mathrm{}(d,p)\mathrm{}{\mathrm{Be}}^{10}$, ${\mathrm{Be}}^9\mathrm{}(d,p)\mathrm{}{\mathrm{Be}}^{10*}$ (3.37 Mev), and ${\mathrm{Be}}^9\mathrm{}(d,t)\mathrm{}{\mathrm{Be}}^8$ have been determined with 3.6-Mev deuterons. Both proton distributions have shapes characteristic of $l_n=1\mathrm{}$ in the Butler theory. The peak cross sections found for these reactions are 3.1±0.6 and 4.5±0.9 mb/steradian, respectively. The triton distribution is peaked at 0°. Its cross section at 5° is 15.5±3 mb/steradian.
