Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Angular distributions of the heavy recoils produced in the (alpha,2n), (alpha,3n), (alpha,4n), (alpha, t), (d, n), (d,2n), (d,3n), and (d, p) reactions of Bi/sup 209/ have been measured at various incident-particle energies. The mechanisms of the (alpha,2n), (alpha,3n), and (d,3n) reactions have been inierpreted by comparison of these angular distributions with theoretical angular distributions resulting from Monte Carlo calculations based on a simple evaporation model. Further information concerning the reaction mechanisms of the (alpha,2n), (alpha,3n), and (alpha,4n) reactions is derived from the results of experimental recoil range measurements. Probable mechsnisms are suggested for several of the other reactions. (auth).
