The asymptotic {ital D}-state to {ital S}-state ratio of the deuteron ({eta}) is deduced from new measurements of tensor analyzing powers in sub-Coulomb ({ital d},{ital p}) reactions. The complete set of analyzing power measurements is presented. Ten statistically independent values are obtained for {eta} from measurements of two analyzing powers using multiple targets, final states, and beam energies. These values are consistent to within their statistical uncertainties. A weighted average of the individual values gives the result {eta}=0.0256{plus minus}0.0004, where the quoted uncertainty includes systematic and statistical contributions. This result is compared with previous measurements and with the predictions obtained from a variety of theories.
