Electrostatic Analysis of Nuclear Reaction Energies. II

Electrostatic analysis of incident and product particle energies has been used to measure the following ground state Q-values: O¹⁶(d,α)N¹⁴ (3.113±{}0.0035 Mev), B¹⁰(pHe³)Be⁸ (-0.0536±{}0.003 Mev), and B¹⁰(p,α)Be⁷ (1.147±{}0.0025 Mev). The energy of the lowest level in B¹⁰ has been determined to be 719±{}1.6 kev; that of Be⁷ to be 429±{}3 kev. Approximate cross sections are given for the above reactions and upper limits for O¹⁶(d,α)N14* (2.3-Mev level), and for B¹⁰(p,p^')B10* (2.1- and 1.7-Mev levels).
