Abstract
Several early studies of the (p, α) reaction to discrete states of the final nucleus indicated that it proceeds mainly by the pick-up mechanism, whereas more recent experiments provide qualitative arguments in favour of the knock-out mechanism. This paper reports calculations showing that the angular distributions and analysing powers of the90,92Zr(p, α)87,89Y and118Sn(p, α)115In reactions can be equally well fitted by distorted wave calculations using either mechanism.
