Cross sections and the analyzing powers {ital A}{sub {ital y}}, {ital A}{sub {ital y}{ital y}}, and {ital A}{sub {ital x}{ital x}} for the {sup 64}Zn({ital d},{sup 6}Li){sup 60}Ni reaction forming the ground and first-excited states of {sup 60}Ni are measured in 5{degree} steps from {theta}{sub lab}=25{degree} to 80{degree} using a 16.4-MeV vector- and tensor-polarized deuteron beam. The {sup 6}Li ground state and seven other states, each representing {sup 6}Li continuum states of a given spin and internal orbital angular momentum, are included in finite-range, coupled-channel Born approximation (CCBA) calculations for {sup 64}Zn({ital d},{sup 6}Li){sup 60}Ni. The CCBA calculations demonstrate that {alpha} transfers forming these continuum states, particularly those forming the first 3{sup +} state in {sup 6}Li, affect the {sup 64}Zn({ital d},{sup 6}Li){sup 60}Ni cross sections and analyzing powers strongly.
