New experimental results for the cross section and Ayy tensor analyzing power observables of the 3He(d,p)4He reaction at a scattering angle of θ=0° are presented for Ed=0.52,0.89, and 1.49 MeV, and all linearly independent scattering amplitudes at this angle are calculated. A hybrid R-matrix+potential model is used to fit these results and other 3He(d,p)4He reaction data for Ed<1 MeV. This analysis indicates significant direct process contributions to the reaction mechanism.
