Abstract Continuing previous experiments on the elastic and inelastic scattering of 11·8MeV deuterons on medium weight nuclei, Sr, Zr, Nb, Pd, and Ag targets have been studied. In addition to elastically scattered deuterons, angular distributions of inelastically scattered deuterons have been obtained for one group in Sr, and three groups in Zr and Nb, respectively, between 20° and 165°. The correlation between the diffraction maxima is discussed in terms ofBlair's phase rule. As in our previous results, this rule works poorly in the comparison between elastic and inelastic angular distributions. However the strongly excited inelastic groups which are interpreted as collective vibrational states do follow this rule. In the case of Pd and Ag, energy spectra at several scattering angles have been measured. The integrated differential cross sections of the inelastically scattered deuterons atΘ=90° of all investigated elements are compared with those of previous measurements. They show the influence of closed shells but no systematic decrease or increase with increasing atomic weight.
