Angular distribution of long range protons from the be9(d, p)be10 reaction

Abstract

With the equipment described in the preceding paper the angular distribution has been measured of long range protons from the Be9(d, p)Be10 reaction at a deuteron bombarding energy of 470 keV. The distribution shows a pronounced maximum in backward direction. Series expansion of the distribution into spherical harmonics is shown to be simple, terms containing P4(cos ) or higher being negligible. A short discussion is given of the theoretical implications of the observed distribution.
