Abstract
We test the validity of the sudden-approximation theory of deuteron stripping of Butler, Hewitt, McKeller, and May (BHMM) by testing its predictions of final-state angular distributions and spectroscopic factors against those of an essentially soluble model of stripping reactions. This model has been constructed with an excitable nuclear core which therefore allows a calculation of the final-state spectroscopic factor to be made in advance. it is based on the solution of the Faddeev equation for multichannel separable $s$-wave two-body interactions between proton and neutron, proton and core, and neutron and core. There are two features which characterize BHMM; one is the sudden approximation and the other is use of intermediate neutron states of a special sort. Both these features give rise to difficulties.
