T(d, p)tn reactions at a deuteron energy of 37 MeV

Energy and angular distributions of deuterons from the D + D → p + n + d reaction

“…The inclusive spectra of the deuterons were measured in deuterated polyethylene and carbon tar gets in the energy interval 5 ≤ Е d ≤ 37 MeV at angles 15° ≤ θ d ≤ 48°. The experimental procedure is described in [6,11]. The spectrum of the inelastically scattered deuterons from the D + D → p + n + d reac tion was determined by subtracting the spectrum mea sured in the carbon target and the contributions of the deuterons elastically scattered by the deuterium and hydrogen nuclei from the spectrum measured in the CD 2 target.…”

“…A deuteron is a loosely bound system, which allows formulas of the diffraction nuclear model [7][8][9][10][12][13][14] to be used for theoretical interpretation of the breakup processes at E D ≈ 40-60 MeV. In this work, we com pared experimental cross sections with those calcu lated using the diffraction model proposed by V.K.…”

“…In this work, we com pared experimental cross sections with those calcu lated using the diffraction model proposed by V.K. Tartakovskii [11,[13][14][15] for scattering processes in few nucleon systems. Two cases were considered: (i) the breakup of a target deuteron at rest in the D + D → d' + p + n reaction, where d' is a scattered deuteron, and (ii) the breakup of an incident deuteron D + D → p + n + where is the recoil deuteron.…”

The energy distribution of the scattered deuterons d' can be written as [8,9,14,15] (1)…”

“…To find explicitly the amplitude in the dif fraction approximation, we used simple expressions of the Gaussian type for internal wave functions, just as in [14,15], and for the D + D → p + n + d process we obtained (6) where λ is the structural parameter of the deuteron wave function, λ = 0.267 fm -1 .…”
