Isovector soft dipole mode in Be-6
Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2012

By using the H-1(Li-6,Be-6)n charge-exchange reaction, population of continuum states in Be-6 was observed up to E-T = 16 MeV, E-T being the Be-6 energy above its three-body decay threshold. In kinematically complete measurements performed by detecting alpha + p + p coincidences, an E-T spectrum of high statistics was obtained, containing approximately similar to 5 x 10(6) events. The spectrum provides detailed correlation information about the well-known 0(+) ground state of Be-6 at E-T = 1.37 MeV and its 2(+) state at E-T = 3.05 MeV. Moreover, a broad structure extending from 4 to 16 MeV was observed. It contains negative parity states populated by Delta L = 1 angular momentum transfer without other significant contributions. This structure can be interpreted as a novel phenomenon, i.e. the isovector soft dipole mode associated with the Li-6 ground state. The population of this mode in the charge-exchange reaction is a dominant phenomenon for this reaction, being responsible for about 60% of the cross-section obtained in the measured energy range.
