Abstract

The reaction 12C(d, d′)12C(3,9.6MeV) → α + 8Be(g.s.), was studied experimentally at 26 MeV deuteron energy with the multi-detector system BOL. The grid of angular coordinates at which data were taken is evenly spread over the available phase space. The angular correlation function of the inelastically scattered deuteron and the α-particle emitted by the excited 12C nucleus was obtained. Experimental results are presented as the coefficients of an expansion in spherical harmonics. A DWBA analysis can explain the measured angular correlation pattern in a qualitative way only.
