Study ofN14by the ReactionC13(He3, d)N14

A thin carbon foil enriched to 91% in ${}_{}{}^{13}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{C}$ was bombarded with 15-MeV ${}_{}{}^3{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{He}$ ions from a tandem electrostatic accelerator. Angular distributions of deuterons corresponding to the bound states of ${}_{}{}^{14}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{N}$ were measured with a single-gap magnetic spectrograph. Distorted-wave calculations were performed and spectroscopic factors were extracted. Agreement with the predictions of intermediate-coupling theory is very good, indicating that this theory provides a good description of states arising from $p$-shell configurations.
