Stripping Reactions on Nuclei of the1pShell Initiated by Vector-Polarized Deuterons

Stripping reactions on target nuclei with spin generally involve at least two values of the angular-momentum transfer $j$ of the captured nucleon. The probabilities $p_j$ for transfer of a neutron with total angular momentum $j$ were determined using vector-polarized deuterons to initiate a number of ($d, p$) reactions with $l=1\mathrm{}$ on ${}_{}{}^6{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Li}$, ${}_{}{}^9{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Be}$, ${}_{}{}^{10}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{B}$, ${}_{}{}^{11}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{B}$, and ${}_{}{}^{14}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{N}$. The results exhibit in general a rather good agreement with shell-model calculations by Cohen and Kurath.
