Abstract

•We develop the empirical and semi-empirical formulae for (d,p) nuclear reaction cross sections.•We calculate the (d,p) nuclear reaction cross sections at 8.5 MeV projectile energy.•We researched of the pairing effects for the cross sections of the (d,p) nuclear reactions.•The obtained results have been compared with other cross section values.

The empirical and semi-empirical systematics of the (d,p) nuclear reaction cross sections were obtained at the incident deuteron energies of 8.5 MeV. The experimental values for (d,p) reaction cross sections were collected from the literature and analyzed for the some target nuclei 27 < A < 121. The obtained cross section formulas by fitting two parameters for the (d,p) nuclear reactions were given. The obtained cross section results by using the systematics for (d,p) nuclear reactions have been discussed and compared with the ALICE–ASH code calculations and the available experimental data. Finally, the semi-empirical cross section formula gives a good fit with the experimental values for the (d,p) nuclear reaction.
