REACTION OF HE3 WITH DEUTERONS,
Abstract
An investigation was made of the cross section of He3(d,p)He4 reactions in the zone of energies of bombarding neutrons 100-1500 kev by the registration of alpha particles. The function of exciting the reaction of He3(d, alpha) H1 was measured by us several times and no divergence was discovered in the output of alpha-particles within limits of statistical dispersion between individual measurement series. The table carried values of differential cross section measured by us in relation to the energy of deuterons falling under a 90 degree angle in direction of the ion beam are presented graphically. These results confirm the discovery by us resonance process of He3(d,p) He4 reactions with position of the resonance maximum at a deuteron energy, equalling 435 + 30 kev. The magnitude of the differential cross section in the maximum is 63.4 millibarn/steradians (barn = 10 to the minus 24th power sq cm, and drops monotonously to a value of 11 milibarn/steradians at an energy of 1500 kev. The error in determining this value is = 7%. (Author)
