Abstract

The breakup of C12 into two Li6 particles has been observed in the reaction B10(d, Li6)Li6. A self-supporting foil of B10 was bombarded with deuterons from the Argonne tandem generator. The pairs of Li6 nuclei were detected by two silicon semiconductor counters placed at the appropriate pair of angles defined by the reaction kinetics. Angular distributions were measured for 20°<θc.m.<160° and were found to be peaked at about 40° (and, by symmetry, at 140°). The reaction may be understood in terms of a direct process. A distorted-wave Born-approximation calculation gives a good fit to the data when reasonable values for the well parameters are assumed.
