NEUTRON ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS FOR THE REACTION O$sup 16$(He$sup 3$,n)Ne$sup 1$$sup 8$
The angular dintributions of neutrons leading to the ground state of Ne/ sup 18/ in the reaction O/sup 16/(He/sup 3/,n)Ne/sup 18/ have been meas ured at bombarding energies of 5.6 and 6.09 Mev, using a pulsed beam time-of-flight neutron spectrometer. The angular distributions were found to be strongly peaked in the forward direction. The results have been compared with a double-stripping theory, and good agreement has been obtained with the theoretical prediction for I = 0 stripping. However, from the angular distributions alone, it is impossible to exclude the possibility that the reaction proceeds by a knock-out mechanism. If the mechanism is that of double stripping, the results lead to the assignment of spin zero and even parity to the ground state of Ne/sup 18/, in accoraunce with expectation. (auth)
