Description

Over the past three years we have studied various surrogate reactions (d,p), (3He,t), (α,α') on several uranium isotopes 234U, 235U, 236U, and 238U. An overview of the STARS/LIBERACE surrogate research program as it pertains to the actinides is discussed. A summary of results to date will be presented along with a discussion of experimental difficulties encountered in surrogate experiments and future research directions
