Investigation of the (d, p) reaction on magnesium isotopes at low deuteron energies

The Mechanism of the Reactions Mg24 (d, p.) Mg23 and Mg26 (d, p.) Mg27 in the Deuteron Energy Range 1.3‐2.5 MeV

“…The auto-correlation functions of the proton groups in the two react,ions were calculated at eight angles between 20' and 160' in steps of 20' by using aspecial FORTRAN program [4]. These auto-correlation functions R(8) were normalized to the corresponding value of R (0) and averaged over the eight angles. The mean normalized auto-correlation functions for some of the proton groups are shown on the left hand side offig.…”

Study ofnatMg(d,d 0 ) reaction at detector angles between 90° and 170°, for the energy range E d,lab =1660–1990 keV

“…The knowledge of the non-Rutherford nat Mg(d,d 0 ) reaction cross section is important for the simultaneous analysis of d-NRA and EBS spectra at backward detection angles. It should be noted here, that there is a certain lack of deuteron elastic scattering experimental data suitable for EBS analysis, with the only exceptions being the 24 Mg(d,d 0 ) data from Omar et al (h lab ¼ 135 ) [3], and the recently published nat Mg(d,d 0 ) data from Paneta et al [2]. Unfortunately, the data presented in [3] are given in arbitrary units, thus their applicability is doubtful.…”

Unfortunately, the data presented in [3] are given in arbitrary units, thus their applicability is doubtful. The data presented in [2], on the other hand, were measured with a relatively large energy step, since the experiment was tuned for the study of the 24 Mg(d,p x ) reaction channels, thus any possible effect of the resonant mechanism in the elastic differential cross sections was not adequately investigated.…”
