Abstract

Angular distributions and absolute cross sections were obtained for a group of reactions induced by 14.8-Mev deuteron bombardment of Na23. The ground state and the 1.341-Mev state of the Na23(d, p)Na24 reaction were fitted with Butler curves of ln=2 and 0, respectively. The angular distributions of seven levels of the reaction Na23(d, d)Na23 were obtained. The Q values of these levels were measured to be -0.441, -2.073, -2.400, -2.689, -2.997, -3.689, -3.925, and -4.457 Mev all with an uncertainty of ±0.040 Mev. The ground state and the first three excited states of Na22 were observed by the reaction Na23(d, t)Na22. It was possible to fit the angular distributions to all the Na22 states with ln=2. The Q value of the Na23(d, t)Na22 ground state was measured to be Q=6.211±0.040 Mev.
