Abstract

The mechanism of the first step of a sequential decay reaction can be determined by a measurement of the angular correlations which in turn lead to the polarization of the unstable particle. This method has been applied to the reaction 12C(d, pn)12C; the first step is assumed to be a stripping reaction leading to a doublet of levels in 13N*. An analysis of the results in PWBA confirms this hypothesis, but the large discrepancies between this model and the measured angular distribution emphasize the importance of initial- and final-state interactions.
