Study of the (d,p) Reaction onSi28,S32, andAr36atEd=18.00MeV

Abstract
The reactions Si28(d,p)Si29, S32(d,p)S33, and Ar36(d,p)Ar37 were studied at an incident deuteron energy of 18.00 MeV. Some Si28(d,p)Si29 data were also obtained at an incident deuteron energy of 21.00 MeV. Angular distributions were obtained for proton groups leading to states in the residual nuclei Si29, S33, and Ar37 with excitation energies up to approximately 8 MeV. With the use of distorted-wave Born-approximation (DWBA) analyses, spectroscopic factors were obtained for all (d,p) transitions which displayed direct-reaction characteristics. J dependence was observed in l=2 (1d) and l=1 (2p) (d,p) transitions for Ed=18.00 MeV. The spectroscopic factors obtained in this experimental study are compared with the predictions of current theoretical models which treat nuclei in the upper sd shell.
