Abstract

Absolute cross sections for coincidence detection of d + d, and of d + p, from the reaction 3He+d → d+d+p initiated by 26.8 MeV helions, were measured at geometries in which two of the outgoing particles emerged with small relative velocity and therefore exhibited a strong final-state interaction. Good DWBA fits to most of the observed spectra were obtained using either one or two distorted waves to describe the relative motions in the final state. Woods-Saxon optical parameters for the p-d interaction are given. No enhancement resulting from sequential decays of unbound 3He levels was observed.
