The mass of {sup 11}Li from {sup 14}C({sup 11}B, {sup 11}Li){sup 14}O
- and others
The nucleus {sup 11}Li has been the subject of much study recently. A large body of experimental evidence has indicated that this nucleus consists of a {sup 9}Li core and a {open_quotes}halo{close_quotes} of two loosely bound neutrons. Several calculations have been made by treating {sup 11}Li as such a three-body system. One of the most important experimental quantities used by these models is the two-neutron separation energy of {sup 11}Li. The most recent measurement, is S{sub 2n}({sup 11}Li) = 340 {+-} 50 keV. In late September of 1992, momentum spectra were collected at the NSCL from the reaction {sup 14}C({sup 11}B, {sup 11}Li){sup 14}O at E/A = 32.05 MeV using the A1200 fragment separator. Preliminary analysis indicates a value of S{sub 2n}({sup 11}Li) = 320 {+-} 30 keV.
