Excitation functions for the (d, p) reactions on 96Ru, 102Ru and 104Ru

Abstract Excitation functions for (d, p) reactions on 96 Ru, 102 Ru and 104 Ru were measured with the activation method up to 14.0 MeV deuteron energy. The results were explained with the modified Peaslee theory by using different values of the absorption parameter ϱ. It was found on the doubly even target nuclei that the values of ϱ for (d, p) reactions became large as their isotopic numbers N - Z increase.
