Study of the ReactionC12(d, p)C13with the Weakly-Bound-Projectile Model

Predictions of the weakly-bound-projectile model are compared with measured differential cross sections, polarization, and vector-analyzing power for the reactions ${\mathrm{C}}^{12}(d, p){\mathrm{C}}^{13}(\mathrm{g}.\mathrm{s}.\mathrm{})$ at deuteron energies between 7.0 and 26 MeV, and ${\mathrm{C}}^{12}(d, p){\mathrm{C}}^{13*}\left(3.09\mathrm{} \mathrm{MeV}\right)$ between 10 and 15 MeV. All the measurements are accounted for without any compound-nucleus resonance effects. It is suggested that previous failures to fit such data with the distorted-wave Born approximation stem from its inadequate description of the stripping mechanism.
