The intrinsic reaction mechanism of proton-induced composite particle pre-equilibrium emission is well known to be a statistical multistep process. However, until recently it was still not clear how important the competition between pickup and knockout is to produce a composite ejectile in the multistep sequence. An evaluation of recent ([Formula: see text]) results at incident energies from 65 to 160[Formula: see text]MeV and on representative target nuclei is presented. The virtue of analyzing power angular distributions to unravel the details of the reaction mechanism is discussed and future possible avenues of investigation are explored.

The reaction mechanism of proton-induced composite particle pre-equilibrium emission as an intrinsic part a statistical multistep process was confirmed long ago. Nevertheless, until fairly recently it was still not clear how pickup and knockout processes compete in the multistep sequence to produce a composite ejectiles. An overview of results and conclusions based on recent (p,α) studies at incident energies from 65 to 200 MeV are presented and evaluated. It is shown how analyzing power is a valuable observable for unravelling the details of the reaction mechanism. Future avenues of investigation are discussed.

Although the spectrum originating from a superconducting bending magnet is quasi-continuous, it shows important intensity variations through its spectral range. A method to determine the incident energy-dependent flux variation based on the comparison between observed intensities and the calculated intensities of a well known structure (calcite) is presented here. It is found that the measured flux is highly sensitive to the use of correct Debye–Waller factors for the atoms of the standard crystal. By using the measured flux curve, it was possible to unambiguously index the Laue diffraction pattern of a trigonal crystal structure in its hexagonal setting. This is a crucial but difficult first step for the determination of strain and stress in materials with this symmetry, such as quartz, Mg, Ti, Znetc.
