We present an experimental study on the rotational inelastic scattering of OH ($X^2\Pi_{3/2}, J=3/2, f$) radicals with He and D$_2$ at collision energies between 100 and 500 cm$^{-1}$ in a crossed beam experiment. The OH radicals are state…
Just as $^3\roarrow{\rm He}$ can be approximately characterized as a polarized neutron target, polarized \Li6D has been advocated as a good {\em isoscalar} nuclear target for the extraction of the polarized gluon content of the nucleon. The…
In this paper we show that the theory of transfer reactions from bound to continuum states is well suited to extract structure information from data obtained by performing "spectroscopy in the continuum". The low energy unbound states of…
