Abstract

Absolute differential cross sections were measured for the reactions 16O(d, d) 16O, 16O(d, p) 17O (ground state), 16O(d, p) 17O ∗ (0.87 MeV), 16O(d, n) 17F (ground state), 16O(d,n) 17F ast; (0.50 MeV) and 16O(d, α) 14N (ground state) from 2 to 3.5 MeV. Excitation functions were obtained at several angles, and angular distributions were measured at sufficiently small energy intervals to determine the structure in the cross sections. These data are analysed using the optical model, the Hauser-Feshbach theory and the distorted wave Born approximation. The fluctuations of the (d, d) and (d, p) cross sections with incident deuteron energy are analysed to give the compound nucleus and direct interaction contributions to these reactions.
