Mass of /sup 16/Ne

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
The mass of /sup 16/Ne has been measured using the /sup 20/Ne(/sup 4/He, /sup 8/He)/sup 16/Ne reaction. The Q value of the reaction was determined to be -60.197 +- 0.023 MeV, which corresponds to a mass excess of 23.984 +- 0.024 MeV. The weighted average of this result with two previous measurements yields a mass excess of 23.994 +- 0.020 MeV. This value is in reasonable agreement with the quadratic isobaric multiplet mass equation. The four parameter isobaric multiplet mass equation suggests a cubic or quartic coefficient of 4 +- 3 keV for the A = 16 multiplet. .ID CS2034 .PG 31 45
