Abstract

The 9Be + p → d + 2α reaction has been studied at a proton bombarding energy of 9.0 MeV, by the coincident detection of pairs of reaction products. Mass identification of one detected particle has been accomplished using a time-of-flight technique. The reaction yield has been shown to be dominated by final-state interactions through states in 8Be and 6Li, with little or no yield from direct three-body disintegration. Theoretical fits to the data using the generalized density of states functions reproduce quite accurately the shapes of the spectra. Efforts to fit the angular dependence of the yield have met with limited success.
