Neutrons from the breakup of C-19
Journal article, 1996

Neutrons arising from the breakup of a 30 MeV/nucleon C-19 beam on a tantalum target have been measured using the 98 element array DEMON. A narrow, forward peaked neutron angular distribution, with a corresponding momentum spread considerably smaller than those measured simultaneously for N-21, O-22 and F-24 was observed for charged fragments with Z < Z(proj). Interpreted in terms of the core-breakup reaction model, the results support the existence of a one neutron halo in C-19.
