Abstract

Deuteron-alpha elastic scattering cross sections have been measured over the deuteron energy range 3.5 to 10 MeV. The data are in the form of excitation functions at seven centre-of-mass angles: 30.6°, 40.7°, 51.9°, 76.2°, 90.0°, 125.3° and 139.1°. The data at 139.1° and part of the data at 125.3° were obtained by observing recoil alpha particles. Energy steps of about 50 keV and an energy resolution of about 30 keV were employed. The cross sections determined are accurate to about 3%. Above 5 MeV the cross sections vary slowly with energy. The data are in good agreement with the angular distribution data of Stewart et al.1).
