- Coincidences between charged particles emitted in the beta-decay of Li-11 were observed using highly segmented detectors. The breakup channels involving three particles were Studied in full kinematics allowing for the reconstruction of the excitation energy of the Be-11 states participating in the decay. In particular, the contribution of a previously unobserved state at 16.3 MeV in Be-11 has been identified selecting the alpha + He-7 -> alpha + He-6 + n channel. The angular correlations between the alpha particle and the center of mass of the He-6 + n system favors spin and parity assignment of 3/2(-) for this state as well as for the previously known state at 18 MeV.

- The -delayed 8 Li + t branch of the 11Li decay was identified via kinematical analysis of the charged particles observed in coincidence. The back-to-back events observed in a narrow angular acceptance were compared to a Monte Carlo simulation. The 8 Li + t sum energy spectrum was fitted assuming that the decay occurs through an intermediate state in 11Be . The resulting energy centroid and full-width half maximum for the intermediate state are 18.35(30)MeV and 1.5(4)MeV, respectively. The -delayed 8 Li + t branching ratio obtained from the coincidence spectrum, BR t = 0.93(8)×10-4 , is in agreement with previous measurements but more precise.
