The 75As(d,p
) reaction in inverse kinematics as a surrogate for neutron capture was performed
at Oak Ridge National Laboratory using a deuterated plastic target. The intensity of the 165 keV
-ray from
76As in coincidence with ejected protons, from exciting 76As above the neutron separation energy populating a
compound state, was measured. A tight geometry of four segmented germanium clover
-ray detectors together
with eight ORRUBA-type silicon-strip charged-particle detectors were used to optimize geometric acceptance.
The preliminary analysis of the 75As experiment and the ecacy and future plans of the (d,p
) surrogate campaign
in inverse kinematics are discussed.
