Abstract

The differential cross sections, dσ(θ) dΩ , and the vector analysing powers, iT 11( θ), were measured for the elastic and inelastic scattering of 52 MeV vector polarized douterons from 20Ne, 22Ne, 26Mg, 28Si, 32S, 34S, 36Ar and 40Ar nuclei. Coupled channels analysis was carried out using an axially symmetric rotational model with either prolate or oblate quadrupole deformations for each isotope. Calculations assuming harmonic vibrator model were also carried out. In general, reorientation effects were found to be weak. A global optical model potential containing an imaginary spin-orbit component was found to be the most suitable in describing the experimental data at this energy.
