The Angular Distribution of Protons from the Reaction ²⁷Al (d, p) ²⁸Al

Abstract

Experiments are described in which a differential ionization chamber was used in the measurement of angular distributions of disintegration particles. Results are given for seven groups of protons from the (d, p) reaction with aluminium in which deuterons having energies of 4.6, 5.8 and 7.5 MeV. were used. The distribution curves are of complicated form, with a general tendency for the protons to be emitted in the forward direction.
