Abstract

The differential scattering cross section for 9.94±0.08-Mev deuterons scattered by protons has been determined with nuclear track emulsions as detectors. The deuterons were obtained from the cyclotron while the target consisted of hydrogen gas at a pressure of approximately 5 cm of mercury.

The photographic plates were arranged so that they recorded simultaneously at all laboratory angles from 12.5° to 65°. Approximately 5000 proton tracks at each of 12 angles in this range were counted. Geometrical, slit scattering, and slit penetration corrections have been made to the number of tracks counted.
