Abstract

Reactions with the spin structure 1+ + 0+ → 0+ + 0+ have properties which allow an absolute determination of {divides}iT11{divides} via measurement of two of the tensor analyzing powers. Vector analyzing powers of the 12C(6Li, α3)14N reaction are deduced to accuracies of about 6% from measurements of the tensor analyzing powers T20 and T21 at ELi = 33 MeV. The vector analyzing power in 6Li + 4He elastic scattering is measured at Ec.m. = 6.2 MeV and θc.m. = 150°, establishing a secondary standard convenient for fast monitoring of 6Li vector polarization.
