Abstract
The () reaction has been studied on targets of , , , and at an incident energy of 25 MeV. The observed resolution of the neutron time-of-flight spectrometer used in this work was about 1%. Differential cross sections were obtained for the resolvable final states over the angular range of 0-40° (L). The angular distributions were compared with the predictions of a simple, one-step, two-nucleon-transfer model. In this formalism the diproton stripped from is transferred to the target retaining its relative motion. The shapes of the angular distributions were unique for a given transfer and were, in most cases, generally reproduced by the calculations. For targets the of many final states could be assigned. Comparison of experimental with theoretical relative magnitudes permitted assignment of dominant shell-model configurations. To first approximation the relative transition strengths to final states in , , and were consistent with the assumption of two particles coupled to an effectively "closed core."
