The results are presented that were obtained by measuring the differential cross sections for the reaction {sup 12}C(d,d) {sup 12}C occurring at E{sub d} = 15.3 MeV and leading to the production of a {sup 12}C nucleus in the ground and the first excited state. The energy dependences of the differential reaction cross sections were measured for three angles of deuteron emission in the range of projectile-deuteron energies E{sub d} between 12 and 15.3 MeV. The double-differential cross sections for the reaction in question were measured for the 2{sup +} state of the {sup 12}C nucleus at 4.44 MeV, and the angular dependences of the even spin-tensor components of the density matrix were determined, along with the angular dependences of the populations of magnetic sublevels and the components of the tensors of multipole-moment orientation. These experimental results are compared with their theoretical counterparts obtained under the assumption of various reaction mechanisms, including collective interaction, heavy-particle stripping, a two-step mechanism that takes into account the delay in the interaction, and the mechanism of compound-nucleus formation.
