Magnetic Analysis of theCo59(d, p)Co60Reaction

Abstract
Proton groups from cobalt targets bombarded with 5-Mev deuterons from the MIT-ONR electrostatic generator have been analyzed with a 180-degree focusing magnetic spectrograph. The ground-state Q value for the Co59(d, p)Co60 reaction was found to be 5.283±0.008 Mev. The 60-kev metastable state and thirty-four additional excited states were observed and their Q values measured.
