- Momentum distributions and invariant mass spectra from the breakup of He-6 ions with an energy of 240 MeV/u interacting with a carbon target have been studied. The data were used to extract information about the reaction mechanism which is influenced by the structure of He-6. It is found that the dominant reaction mechanism is a two-step process: knock out of one neutron followed by the decay of the He-5 resonance. The shape of the (alpha+n) two-body invariant mass spectrum is interpreted as mainly reflecting the 5He ground state which is a J(pi) = 3/2(-) resonance. However, no evidence for correlations between cu particles and neutrons is observed in the momentum widths of the distributions. It is demonstrated that a combined analysis of the two-body invariant mass spectrum and an appropriate correlation function may be used to determine the properties of the intermediate resonance.

Beta decay of Ar-31
- 1998

Ingår i: Nuclear Physics A. - 0375-9474. ; 634:4, s. 475-496
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A complete study of Ar-31 beta decay has been made by high-resolution charged-particle and gamma-ray spectroscopy. Beta-delayed radiation was detected by an array of three charged-particle detectors and a large-volume germanium detector. Fifteen new energy levels were discovered in Cl-31. The beta-strength distribution, measured to 14.5 MeV, is compared with a shell-model calculation in the full sd space. The quenching of the Gamow-Teller strength and the isospin impurity of the IAS in Cl-31 are discussed. (C) 1998 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.

Two-proton emission in the decay of Ar-31
- 1998
-
Ingår i: Nuclear Physics A. - 0375-9474. ; 628:3, s. 345-362
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Several beta-delayed two-proton branches were observed in the decay of Ar-31, the most intense ones proceeding through the isobaric analogue state (IAS) in Cl-31. The mechanism of the two-proton emission is studied via the energy and angular distributions of the two protons, Simultaneous emission of the two protons fits the present data well, sequential decays might also describe them. Independent of the decay mechanism, a spin of 5/2 for the IAS is suggested, An improved limit on the direct two-proton emission fi om the ground state of Ar-31 is presented, (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.

On the beta-decay of C-9

Ingår i: Nuclear Physics A. - 0375-9474. ; 692:3-4, s. 427-450

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In beta -decay experiments on C-9 at CERN/ISOLDE the beta -strength was determined to the ground state, the 12.2 MeV excited state and the Isobaric Analog State (IAS) at 14.655 MeV in B-9. A large beta -strength asymmetry is deduced for the mirror transitions of C-9 and Li-9 to states around 12 MeV excitation energy. A satisfactory description of the three-body decay from a narrow energy region around the 12.2 MeV resonance is obtained within a sequential model involving the ground and first-excited states of Li-5 and Be-8. From the study of angular correlations the spin of the 12.2 MeV state is determined as 5/2(-). For the first time the population of the IAS is observed in beta -decay and new information on the decay of this state is obtained. The advantages of a closely packed. highly segmented detector setup are demonstrated. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Probing the Li-11 halo structure through beta-decay into the Be-11(*) (18 MeV) state
- 1997

Ingår i: Nuclear Physics A. - 0375-9474. ; 613:3, s. 199-208

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- An experimental study of beta-delayed charged particles (H, He, Be) from Li-11 shows a beta-feeding to an excited state at 18.15(15) MeV in Be-11 with a large Gamow-Teller strength, B-GT greater than or equal to 1.6. Branching ratios and reduced widths of 2-, 3- and 5- particle decay channels of this state are extracted, A strong suppression of the neutron branch from the 18 MeV state to the Be-10(g.s.) is observed, We suggest that the measured partial width may be sensitive to the (p(1/2))(2) component in the Li-11 halo, A rough estimate indicates that the (p(1/2))(2) component is not the dominant one in the halo wave-function.

- In this contribution examples of the application of new technologies to disentangle the mechanism of beta-delayed multiparticle emission are given. In particular the mechanism of beta-delayed two-proton emission from Ar-31 has been resolved and proved to be sequential, a preview of C-9-decay data is discussed. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

Study of Charged-Particles Emitted in the Beta-Decay of He-6,He-8
- 1993

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The beta-delayed charged particle spectra from He-6 and He-8 were measured with a telescope consisting of a gas counter and a Si surface barrier detector. Beta-delayed deuterons and tritons are emitted in the two cases with branching ratios of (7.6 +/- 0.6) x 10(-6), E(d) > 350 keV and (8.0 +/- 0.5) x 10(-3), respectively. Both spectra present anomalies that must be due to the special structure of these nuclei (an alpha core surrounded by several neutrons).

Fine structure in the beta-delayed proton decay of Ar-33
- 1996

Ingår i: Nuclear Physics A. - 0375-9474. ; 611:1, s. 47-55

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Low-energy beta-delayed protons from Ar-33 have been measured for the first time, The data reveal states, which, despite unfavourable barrier penetrability values, strongly decay to the first excited 2(+) state in S-32. The observation is discussed in terms of the standard shell model, A natural explanation is provided by the large spectroscopic amplitudes, involving s(1/2) and d(3/2) orbitals, as well as the l = 0 barrier penetrability, favouring the decay to the 2(+) state.

Super-strong beta-decay of Li-11 into Be-11* (18 MeV) state: A probe for halo p-wave component?
- 1997
-
Ingår i: Nuclear Physics A. - 0375-9474. ; 616:1-2, s. C201-C207
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- An experimental study of beta-delayed charged particles (H, He, Be), neutrons and gamma-rays that follow the Li-11 beta-decay, clearly indicates a beta-feeding to an exited state at 18.1 MeV in Be-11 with a large Gamow-Teller strength, B-GT greater than or equal to 1.0. The large strength of this beta-transition implies a broad overlap of the Be-11* state at 18.1 MeV and the ground state of Li-11. The deduced width of this resonance is similar or equal to 1 MeV. A strong suppression of the branch from 18.1 MeV state into the Be-10+n channel is observed. This branch, with the largest decay energy, has a partial width less than 1% of the total width. A centrifugal barrier consideration fails to explain this effect. A possible consequence of the observed effect for the Li-11 structure is that the admixture of (p(1/2))(2) configuration in Li-11 might be small.
