A SEARCH FOR FINE STRUCTURE IN THE REACTIONS B$sup 10$(D,$alpha$$sub 0$)Be$sup 8$ AND B$sup 10$(d,$alpha$$sub 1$)Be$sup 8$@

Journal Article · · Nuclear Phys.
The excitation functions for the reactions B/sup 10/(d, alpha /sub n/)Be/ sup 8/ and B/sup 10/(d, alpha /sub 1/)Be/sup 8/* were measured in 10 kev steps of deuteron energy from 400 to 900 kev. The alpha particles were detected at 45 deg with a thin CsI(Tl) crystal and photomultiplier. No fine structure is observed in either reaction. The absolute values of the differential reaction cross sections at 45 deg (laboratory) angle are found to be 0.24 plus or minus 0.05 mb/sr for the ground state group and 1.25 plus or minus 0.4 mb/sr for the group going to the first excited state in Be/sup 8/, both cross sections being measured at a deuteron energy of 780 kev. The alpha particle spectrum, as measured with 5 1/2% energy resolution and 1 1/2% statistics, shows no sign of any Be/sup 8/ state between 3 and 5 Mev. (auth)
