Abstract
The branching ratio for the reaction has been measured between deuteron energies of 45 and 146 keV. Pair-coincidence spectrometry and pulse-shape discrimination were employed to reduce the neutron effects in the NaI(Tl) gamma-ray detector. The branching ratio is found to be constant over the energy range of the measurements with a best value . This value is significantly greater than cluster-model calculations of the branching ratio.
