Test Experiment on Determining the Cluster Structure of Highly Excited States of \({}^{6}\)Li

  • Published:
Moscow University Physics Bulletin Aims and scope

Abstract

The paper presents the results of test measurements to determine the capabilities of studying the cluster structure of highly excited states of the \({}^{6}\)Li nucleus using the reaction \({}^{6}\)Li(n,\({}^{3}\)He n)\({}^{3}\)H on the RADEX neutron channel at the Institute for Nuclear Research, Russian Academy of Sciences. In the experiment, scattered neutrons were detected in coincidence with the decay products of highly excited states (helium-3). The first experimental data on the excitation energy of the \({}^{6}\)Li nucleus have been obtained.
