The D-D cross-section and angular distribution between 55 and 430 keV

The cross-section and angular distributions of protons from the D-D reaction using thin gas targets have been measured from 55 to 430 keV. The results have been expressed in the form σ θ = ( σ /4 π (1+⅓ A +1/5 B )) (1+ A cos 2 θ + B cos 4 θ). The variation of the total cross-section σ and the asymmetry coefficients A and B over the energy range 15 to 190 keV can be described by the theory of Beiduk, Pruett & Konopinski introducing only a small or negligible amount of spin-orbit coupling. The ratio of the number of 3 He’s to 3 H’s has been measured up to 250 keV at a few angles in the forward direction only, and found to be unity within experimental error.

A thin gas target was used and the particles from the reactions were detected by a proportional counter. The results show that the total cross-section for the two reactions is the same to within 1%, but that the angular distributions of the products are significantly different. The asymmetry coefficient for the reaction D( d , n ) 3 He is given by 0·31 + 0·0058 E , compared with 0·13 + 0·0047 E for reaction D( d , p ) 3 H, where E is the bombarding energy in kilovolts.


The cross-section and angular distribution of the protons from the D - D reaction have been studied with bombarding energies between 15 and 50 keV using a thin gas target. The cross-section results show a significant deviation from the simple Gamow theory of penetra­tion through a Coulomb barrier. Both this deviation and the asymmetry of the reaction at even the lowest energies can be explained consistently by the contribution to the reaction of waves of non-vanishing angular momentum. Analysis of the results in terms of such waves gives some indication that spin-orbit coupling is a significant factor in the transitions.

The total cross sections for the π+π− photoproduction on the deuteron were measured in an energy range of 0.8 to 1.1 GeV. The obtained total cross section for the quasi-free π+π− photoproduction on the deuteron was about 60 % of those on the free proton. The cross section for Δ++Δ− photoproduction was derived from the non-quasi-free π+π− photoproduction events. It was smaller than the previous data.

Measurements are reported of the energy loss suffered by H1 and He4 particles, of 4- to 30-kev energy, in passing through thin films of carbon, aluminum oxide, and VYNS. Only those particles that emerged in the forward direction were studied. Evidence is presented for identifying the stopping cross sections per atom observed in this way with Se, the electronic component of the total stopping cross section per atom. It appears that the calculated energy dependence of [Formula: see text] is somewhat in error, and that the magnitudes of the Se's for He4 are systematically too small by 10–15%.

The effects of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and relativistic correction (RC) on the energy levels of a hydrogenic impurity in a GaAs/Ga 1-x Al x As quantum wire are studied. The quantum wire has a V-shaped cross-section and the impurity located in its center. Our numerical calculations have done using a variational procedure within the effective mass approximation. Our results show that (i) the splitting due to the SOC decreases with increasing the wire width, (ii) the SOC and RC increase when the concentration increases, (iii) the SOC is zero for l = 0 (l is angular momentum) and nonzero for l ≠ 0, (iv) for a given wire width, the RC is different for l = 0 and l = 1 due to expectation values of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] (r is distance between the electron and impurity). We also computed the conductance of the quantum wire with and without impurity.
