d,p) angular distributions have been measured along with (p,y) correlations in Be 9 , B 10 , and Mg 24 in order to test the applicability of stripping correlation theory and assign tentative quantum numbers. Deuteron energies were 2.5 to 4 Mev. All correlations exhibited the predicted deuteron energy independence and approximate angular symmetry in the (d,p) plane at energies above 3.5 Mev. The Be 9 correlation was shown to be isotropic to ±7% in the plane perpendicular to the axis of the recoil nucleus. The observation of a (d,p) stripping peak 2 or 3 times the minimum yield is not a sufficient criterion for the observation of a correlation which is independent of deuteron energy. All correlations were of the form 1+^4 cos 2 0 (gamma, recoil nucleus). The observed A's were -0.50, 0.00, +0.50, -0.40, for Be 10 * (3.37 Mev), B 11 * (4.46 Mev), B 11 * (6.76 Mev), Mg 25 * (3.40 Mev), respectively. All uncertainties in A's were =b0.05. Spin 1/2 is ruled out for Mg 25 * (3.40 Mev). The Be 9 anisotropy is within 15% of one extreme of theoretically possible anisotropics. The incoming channel spin mixing ratio found in Be 9 can be gotten by assuming pure L-S coupling and a 3 P 2 Be 10 * level. The spin 9/2 is unlikely for the B 11 * (4.46 Mev) level, while the spin 3/2 is ruled out and 9/2 is unlikely for the B 11 * (6.76 Mev) level.* Part of a dissertation presented by S. A.
