Description

The inclusive C12(d->,He2) and exclusive C12(d->,He2+n) reactions have been studied with a beam energy of 171 MeV and scattering angles for the (d,He2) reaction θ=0 deg. and 3 deg. The studies focused on the separation of the isovector spin-dipole resonance (IVSGDR) into its components by measuring tensor-analysing powers and observing the direct neutron decay to the low-lying proton-hole states in 11B. Merging the information obtained from both measurements resulted in the first-time verification of model-independent predictions of tensor-analysing powers at extreme forward angles and the experimental decomposition of the IVSGDR into its Jπ components. The experimental results are in reasonable agreement with theoretical estimates based on shell-model calculations
