Inclusive (d, x d’) Reactions on Nuclei in the Mass range 9 to 208 at an Incident Energy of 100 MeV

Abstract

The inclusive (d, xd’) reaction on 9Be, 12C, 27Al, 58Ni, 93Nb, 181Ta, and 208Pb were investigated at an incident energy of 100 MeV for scattering angles between 10° and 120°. The measured spectra are rather smooth and featureless and reveal very similar qualitative features of the continuum compared to existing (p, xp’) and (α, xα’) data. The continuum angular distributions at various emission energies are described reasonably well with parameterized systematics which indicates a multistep mechanism as the underlying process of pre-equilibrium emission.
