Abstract
The energy spectra of the protons emitted from a vanadium target when bombarded by 8.9 MeV deuterons have been measured by magnetic analysis at angles of observation between 5° and 70°. The angular distributions of sixteen proton groups have been measured and compared with theoretical stripping curves to obtain information on parities, spins and reduced widths. Most of the transitions required an l=1 assignment. The results are compared with results on the 51V(n, γ)52V reaction.
