Theoretical calculation of angular distribution of the 16O(d,p0)17O reaction at low energies

Nuclear Reaction Analysis (NRA) is employed to perform depth profiling of the light elements (carbon, nitrogen, oxygen …) in the heavy element substrates. To conduct the analysis, the availability and reliability of the respective differential cross-sections are among crucial factors to achieve the reliable results. In this work, we made a theoretical attempt to calculate the angular distribution of the transfer reaction (stripping reaction) 16O(d,p0)17O reaction at 1.3 and 1.6 MeV energies in the lab frame, which are usable in NRA. Moreover, the optical potential parameters, which are obtained through the work, can be utilized by the global optical potentials.
