Abstract

The angular and energy dependence of the $H^{3} (p, n)$ reaction at energies up to a few Mev have been much analyzed for their possible indication of resonances in the "compound nucleus" ${He}^{4}$ . It is shown that the experimental data can be explained on the basis of "direct" interactions, without assuming that any compound-nucleus state is involved. A combination of "knock-on" and "pickup" effects is involved.

In addition to removing the $H^{3} (p, n)$ data as evidence for an excited state of ${He}^{4}$ , the result of this work adds to previous evidence that the Born approximation can give a good account of the angular and energy variations in nuclear rearrangement collisions, even at energies as low as a few Mev.
