Abstract

The cross sections and polarizations of the neutron groups from the O16(d,n)F17 reaction leading to the ground and first excited states of F17 have been measured in the deuteron energy range from 3 to 4 MeV. Time-of-flight techniques were employed throughout. Calculations were performed to determine to what extent the distorted-wave Born-approximation theory could describe the experimental results. While the cross-section angular distributions could be reproduced well, the polarization calculations were generally quite different from the experimental results, although "suggestive" in a few cases. Compound-nucleus contributions to the data appear to be significant. Spectroscopic factors were extracted and are in satisfactory agreement with those obtained by previous workers.
