Abstract

Measurements of the tensor and vector analyzing powers, A_yy(130°) and A_y(130°), have been obtained for the ²H(d,γ )⁴He reaction for energies ranging from E_d(lab) = 0.3 MeV to E_d(lab) = _{50 MeV}. The A_yy(130°) data are sensitive to the D-state present in the ground state of ⁴He and are observed to have their maximum value near E_d = 30 MeV. The vector analyzing power data show a maximum near E_d = 3 MeV. The data are compared to the results of a microscopic multi-channel resonating group model calculation.
