The structure of <sup>10</sup>Li by proton elastic scattering of T=2 isobaric analogue states in <sup>10</sup>Be

ORAL

Abstract

The structure of the neutron unbound system 10Li is not full determined. The low-lying level structure of 10Li is important for describing the 9Li core plus neutron interaction which plays a role in other systems like the Borromean 2n-halo systems 11Li. In the ground state, the neutron is unbound by about 25 keV which has been observed as an s-wave scattering state in neutron decay experiments. The system has also been probed by 9Li(d,p) which showed no evidence of this scattering state. The 10Li system can be explored by investigating T=2 isobaric analogue states in 10Be. Here we present preliminary experimental results from an experiment with the TexAT-TPC to measure the excitation function of those T=2 states in 10Be via proton elastic scattering.
