A calibration of the sub-Coulomb (t,d) reaction

  • 1. Manchester Univ. (UK). Schuster Lab.

Description

An activation technique has been used in measurements of the absolute thick target yield of the 48Ca(t,d)49Ca(g.s.) reaction at triton energies below the Coulomb barrier at 2.50, 2.75, 3.00, 3.25 and 3.50 MeV. From a DWBA analysis of the data the value of the sub-Coulomb (t,d) normalisation factor D2 Has been determined to be (3.47+-0.42)x104 MeV2.fm3. The calibration relies on a comparison of data from the 48Ca(t,d)49Ca(g.s.) reaction with that from the sub-Coulomb 48Ca(17O, 16O)49Ca(g.s.) reaction. The sensitivity of the results to the available optical-model parameter sets is discussed. (Auth.)
