Coulomb dissociation and momentum distributions for [sup 11]Li [yields] [sup 9]Li + n + n breakup reactions

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6643328
Momentum distributions for the [sup 11]Li [yields] [sup 9]Li+n+n breakup reaction, generated by Coulomb dipole excitations, axe calculated in a 3-body model for [sup 11]Li. The relative momentum distribution of the two neutrons is in good agreement with recent 3-body coincidence measurements but the momentum distribution for the [sup 9]Li recoil and the decay energy spectrum are much narrower than observed. These discrepancies may be due to higher order dynamical effects which have been ignored.
