Photodisintegration of aligned deuterons at astrophysical energies using linearly polarized photons    [PDF]

G. Ramachandran, Swarnamala Sirsi, S. P. Shilpashree
Following the model independent approach to deuteron photodisintegration with linearly polarized $\gamma-$rays, we show that the measurements of the tensor analyzing powers on aligned deuterons along with the differential cross section involve five different linear combinations of the isovector $E1^j_v; j=0,1,2$ amplitudes interfering with the isoscalar $M1_s$ and $E2_s$ amplitudes. This is of current interest in view of the recent experimental finding \cite{blackston1} that the three $E1^j_v$ amplitudes are distinct and also the reported experimental observation \cite{sawatzky} on the front-back (polar angle) asymmetry in the differential cross section.
