Study of Deuteron-Cluster Deformation Using the ReactionLi6(d, tp)He4

The reaction ${}_{}{}^6{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Li}(d, tp){}_{}{}^4{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{He}$ has been studied for two values of residual ${}_{}{}^4{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{He}$ momentum (${\overrightarrow{\mathrm{k}}}_{\alpha }=0\mathrm{} \mathrm{and} -30\mathrm{}$ MeV/c). The shift of the first minimum in the angular distribution of the reaction ${}_{}{}^6{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Li}(d, tp){}_{}{}^4{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{He}$, for fixed ${\overrightarrow{\mathrm{k}}}_{\alpha }$, with respect to the first minimum in the angular distribution of the reaction $d(d, t)p$, has been used to investigate the structure of the $d$ cluster in the ${}_{}{}^6{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Li}$ nucleus.
