The role of various mechanisms in the formation of the 12B nucleus in the 10B(t, p)12B reaction

The angular distribution of protons from the ¹⁰B(t, p)¹²B reaction is analyzed within the framework of three mechanisms: dineutron cluster stripping, heavy ⁹Be cluster stripping, and successive time-delay neutron transfer. The dineutron cluster stripping and successive neutron transfer mechanisms are shown to be of considerable importance. Wave functions of the relative motion of the ¹⁰B and dineutron, as well as of the ¹⁰B and both neutrons, in the ¹²B ground state are reconstructed, which revealed that the neutron halo in the ¹²B nucleus practically does not manifest itself in the ¹⁰B(t, p)¹²B reaction.
