New determination of the asymptotic D-state-to-S-state ratio of the deuteron

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
The asymptotic D/S ratio of the deuteron, eta, is deduced from new measurements of tensor analyzing powers for sub-Coulomb (d,p) reactions. Values of eta obtained under various experimental conditions (i.e., corresponding to different analyzing powers, bombarding energies, target nuclei, and final states) are consistent within their statistical uncertainties. A weighted average of the individual measurements gives eta = 0.0256 +- 0.0004. This result is compared with predictions obtained from a variety of theoretical models.
