The tensor analyzing power Azz AT θ = 0° for the He( , p)He reaction

The tensor analyzing power f_zz has been measured for the ³He( , p)⁴He reaction at 0 = 0° over an incident deuteron energy range E_d = 6.6–15.8 MeV in steps of 0.5 MeV. The present results agree with and extend the previous measurements of Grüebler et al. The present results indicate that this reaction is a very good tensor analyzer for polarized deuteron beams with energies up to 15.8 MeV.
