A study of the 70, 72, 74, 76Ge(d,p)71, 73, 75, 77Ge reactions using polarized deuterons

Differential cross sections and vector analyzing powers were measured at an incident deuteron energy of 12.0 MeV for the ^{70, 72, 74, 76}Ge(d, p)^{71, 73, 75, 77}Ge reactions. The data were analyzed with the distorted-wave Bom approximation. Spin and parity assignments were made to 13 states in ⁷¹Ge, 19 states in ⁷³Ge, 13 states in ⁷⁵Ge and 11 states in ⁷⁷Ge. Spectroscopic factors were extracted and a simple sum rule analysis was applied to the data.
