A kinematically complete measurement of the four-body breakup reaction [ital d]+[ital d][r arrow][ital d][sup *]+[ital d][sup *][r arrow][ital p]+[ital n]+[ital p]+[ital n] has been performed at 15.7 MeV bombarding energy. A ring-detector system consisting of a charged-particle detector and a neutron detector is used to define a singlet deuteron, i.e., [ital d][sup *]; a charged-particle detector is used to measure spectra of products produced by another [ital d][sup *] at five angles. A velocity-distribution diagram has first been obtained, and by performing a fit the most probable breakup energy of the singlet deuteron in the laboratory system is obtained, 0.054[plus minus]0.012 MeV. A final state interaction calculation using known [ital p]-[ital n] singlet phase shifts predicts the expected proton spectra.
