Description

Measurements of the tensor and vector analyzing powers, Ayy(1300) and Ay(1300), have been obtained for the 2H(d,γ)4He reaction for energies ranging from Ed(lab) = 0.3 MeV to Ed(lab) = 50 MeV. The Ayy(1300) data are sensitive to the D-state present in the ground state of 4He and are observed to have their maximum value near Ed = 30 MeV. The vector analyzing power data show a maximum near Ed = 3 MeV. The data are compared to the results of a microscopic multi-channel resonating group model calculation. (orig.)
