A halo nucleus is built from a core and at least one weakly bound neutron or proton. To understand this unique cluster structure, lots of efforts have been undertaken. During the past decades, the (d, p) reaction has been widely used in experiments and has become an important tool for extracting single-particle properties of nuclei. In this work, our goal is to obtain the Asymptotic Normalization Coefficient (ANC) of the halo nuclei ¹¹Be using the ADWA method. We perform the analysis for the ¹⁰Be(d, p)¹¹Be stripping reaction at Ed=21.4, 18, 15, and 12MeV for the ground state and first excited state of the composite nucleus ¹¹Be. The experimental measurement was carried out at Oak Ridge National Laboratory by Schmitt et al. [1] The sensitivity of the calculations to the optical potential choice is also checked. Overall, the transfer process becomes more peripheral at lower energies and forward angles. Investigation in this area is the best way to extract a reliable ANC from the experimental data. For the ground state of ¹¹Be, the ANC obtained using our method (C=0.785−0.030+0.026fm−1/2) shows perfect agreement with the one obtained by Ab initio calculations (CAb=0.786 fm−1/2) [2].
