Abstract

Cross sections and analysing powers have been measured for the elastic and inelastic scattering of tritons from 32S, along with the 32 S( t, α) 31 P reaction data, using the 17 MeV polarised triton beam available at the Los Alamos National Laboratory. An optical model analysis of the elastic scattering data has yielded a triton spin-orbit potential with an unconventional geometry. The inelastic analysing powers have shown a requirement for including the deformation of the spin-orbit potential in the coupling potential form factor. The ( t, α ) reaction data have been analysed using the zero-range DWBA. Certain features of this reaction data which could not be described by the DWBA are well predicted when the analysis is extended to include explicitly the inelastic couplings and two-step processes through a CCBA calculation.
