Abstract

The differential cross section, σ(θ), and the vector analyzing power, iT11(θ), have been measured for the 12C(d, n)13N reaction to the ground and first excited states of 13N. A purely vector polarized deuteron beam was accelerated to seven different incident energies in the energy range 5.7–9.7 MeV. Measurements were made over the lab angular range 5° to 35° in 5° steps. Distorted-wave calculations are compared to these data as well as to energy averaged data for the ground-state transition. In a separate experiment, at the same energies, measurements of the zero degree transverse vector polarization transfer coefficient, Kyy(0°), have been performed for both ground and first excited state transitions. The values of Kyy(0°) obtained are large and near their maximum value of 23.
