Abstract

Differential cross sections and vector and tensor analysing powers of deuterons elastically scattered by 40Ar, 40Ca and 60Ni have been analysed in terms of an optical potential containing tensor terms. The effect of two optical potential tensor terms on the various analysing power components have been investigated. It was found that the quantity T 20 at 180° is particularly sensitive to the optical potential tensor parameters. Although the differential cross section and the vector analysing power data were already well reproduced without any tensor interactions in the optical potential, the inclusion of tensor terms improved greatly the fits to the tensor analysing power data, resulting in a fairly satisfactory agreement.
