Revised Manuscript 4 August 08 Energy Levels of Light Nuclei A = F. Ajzenberg-Selove University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 904-696 Abstract: An evaluation of A = was published in Nuclear Physics A (970), p.. This version of A = differs from the published version in that we have corrected some errors discovered after the article went to press. Figures and introductory tables have been omitted from this manuscript. Reference key numbers have been changed to the NNDC/TUNL format. (References closed December, 969) The original work of Fay Ajzenberg-Selove was supported by the US Department of Energy [DE-AC0-76-ER078]. Later modification by the TUNL Data Evaluation group was supported by the US Department of Energy, Office of High Energy and Nuclear Physics, under: Contract No. DEFG0-88-ER4044 (North Carolina State University); Contract No. DEFG0-9-ER4069 (Duke University).

B B has been identified in the. GeV proton bombardment of uranium. It is particle stable (966PO09). See also (960ZE0, 96BAC, 966GA). GENERAL: C (Figs. 9 and ) See (960TAC, 96TAE, 964LIB, 964STB, 967LO0). See also (969AR).. C(β ) N Q m = 9.77 The half-life is. ± 0.0 sec (96DO7),.49 ± 0.07 sec (964NE09). The β-spectrum is complex. Transitions have been observed both to the ground state and to the upper of the. MeV levels of N: the latter transition is clearly allowed: see Table. (99AL06, 966AL, 969GA0). The ground state transition of N*(.) has E γ =.990±0.0004 MeV (967CH9); J π for this state is (see Table.4). Thus J π ( C) = or (99AL06, 964AL: see also (96WA0)). See also (96KIB, 968ZHB) and N.. 9 Be( 6 He, α) Be Q m = 6.4 E b = 9.076 9 Be was irradiated with 4 MeV neutrons and the decay of Be was observed [ 9 Be(n, α) 6 He, followed by the above reaction]: the cross section (which is determined for a large 6 He energy spread) is ± 0 mb (967ST).. 9 Be( 7 Li, p) C Q m = 9.09 Observed proton groups are listed in Table.

At E d = 4.9 MeV, proton groups are observed to the ground state of C and to the levels at 0.7,.09, 4.,.94, 6.8 and 7. MeV (±0 kev) (99MOB). The angular distribution of ground state protons implies l n = 0, J π = (99MOB: see also (96PUB) and ref. 9 there, (964AL)); for the first excited state, l n =. θ = 0.09 and 0.0 (99MOB), 0.6 and 0.06 (966GL0) for the ground state and the first excited state, respectively. See also (967NE06). The 0.7 MeV level has a mean life of.7 ± 0. nsec (96LO0); E γ = 70 ± 7 kev. The angular distribution of the γ-rays requires J. Since the l n = stripping requires J π = or, J π = is established (96CH4). The observed lifetime excludes J > (96LO0). See also (964NE09, 96WA0, 966AL, 967CH9).

A combination of N*(0.80) and (9.8) permits a good account of the low energy (n, n) and (n, γ) cross sections (99HED). The thermal (n, p) cross section can be ascribed to the E p =. MeV resonance ( N*(.6)) (9BA44: see also 4 N(n, γ) N). See also (99AJ76) and (969TI0). Table.0 displays branching ratios obtained in this and in other reactions. The angular distributions of γ-rays at the E p = 0. MeV resonance ( N*(0.4)) leads to assignments of J =, ( ), and, respectively, for N*(.7, 7.6, 7.0, 0.4) (960HE). The angular distribution of the (0.8 8.) γ-ray fixes J = for N*(8.) (968SIE). A triple correlation study by (968SIE) of the decay of N*(0.80) to the E x = 9.

The elastic scattering has been studied for E p = 0.4 to.7 MeV. At the E p = 7 kev resonance (see Table.), the scattering is consistent with d-wave formation of a J π = state. No anomalies are observed at E p = 0. and 0.6 MeV (99HED). However, anomalies are observed at E p =.6,.9,.47,.0,.07 and.48 MeV: the parameters of these are displayed in Table. (968HA7, 968HE). The.48 MeV anomaly is due to a J π = ; T = state at E x =. MeV (which is the analog to the first excited state of C), and is distinct from the J π = resonance in 4 C(p, n) 4 N observed at E p =.4 MeV (968HE). See also (968IWA, 969IWE). 8. 4 C(p, n) 4 N Q m = 0.66 E b = 0.08 Resonances reported by (9RO6, 9BA44, 96SA06, 99FEC, 960BA4, 96HA, 96HA0, 968HE) are listed in Table.. In addition to these, (96HA) report (in an abstract) a broad resonance corresponding to a T = state of N at E x =.6 MeV. At E p =.79 MeV, the distributions favor, but is not excluded (9BA44: see also (9KA0)); a computation of the cross section favors J = (96SA06). At E p =.88 MeV, the angular distribution is consistent with the J π = assignment from 4 N(n, n) 4 N (9BA44). The E p =.7 MeV state has J = or ; the σ nn clearly indicates ther latter (9BA44, 96SA06). For N*(.6) (E p =. MeV), the proton reduced width indicates a single-particle level, while the neutron reduced width is only 0. This is consistent with the assignment T =, corresponding to the ground state of C (9BA44, 96BA6, 99FEC). See also (967VOB, 969BAN, 969TI0). Polarization measurements are reported at E p = 7., 8.8 and 0.4 MeV by (969WOJ; n 0, n, n ). 9. 4 C(d, n) N Q m = 7.984 Angular distributions have been determined at E d =.,.8 and.8 MeV (967COR; n 0, n, n, n 46 ),. to.08 MeV (96IM0; n 0 ),.0 and. MeV (96IM0; n, n, n 46 ) and.0 MeV (967LA; n 0, n, n, n 4, n, n 6 and N*(8., 9.06, 9.6, 9.)). The transitions to N*(.0, 9.06) involve l p = 0: these states therefore have J π = (967LA). See also (99AJ76) and (96CH4, 964MOG). Studies of the γ-decay of N states reached in this and in other reactions are summarized in Table.0: see (96WA6). See also (967CH9). 0. 4 C( He, d) N Q m = 4.7
At E( He) = 4 MeV, angular distributions of the deuterons corresponding to N*(0,.8,.0, 6.) have been measured and analyzed by DWBA: the relative spectroscopic factors for the first four states of N are, 0.0, 0.4, 0.07 in good agreement with the predictions of (97HAE). Angular distributions of the d 0 group are also reported at E( He) = 9 MeV by (96WE, 966DUB, 968DAN).. 4 C(α, t) N Q m = 9.606 Not reported.. 4 N(n, γ) N Q m = 0.8 Q 0 = 0.8 ± 0.0006 (968GR4). The thermal cross section is 80 ± 0 mb (97BA8), 7 ± 7. mb (964ST). This large cross section is not understood in terms of the present level structure in N: see (99AJ76). Observed capture γ rays are displayed in Table. (96MOC, 967TH0, 968GR4). The very accurate γ-ray energy determinations of (968GR4) show that two states at E x 9. MeV are involved in this reaction as previously suggested by (966WA08). The lower of the two, at E x = 9.8 MeV, decays predominantly to the ground state. The other state at E x = 9.49 MeV, which is preferentially fed in this reaction, decays primarily by cascades via N*(.7,.0, 6., 7.6) (968GR4). See also reactions and 9, (968GRZY, 968ST0) and Table.0. Recoil Doppler broadening of cascade γ-rays has been measured by (969WE07): the derived τ m are listed in Table.7. See also (968CAJ). Observation of non-isotropic correlations in the C 6. cascade means that J for N*(6.): the results are consistent with J = (964BA0). The importance of measuring the (n, γ) cross section at E n = 0.47 and 0.66 MeV for astrophysical considerations is suggested by (968FOA). See also (960CA0, 96JA09, 969HOX) and (98GR0, 964LIC).. 4 N(n, n) 4 N E b = 0.8 The thermal (bound) scattering cross section is. b (96WIA).

The surface thickness a = 0.6 fm, as determined from analysis of the scattering of 44 MeV α-particles from N (968FAA). At E α = 40.

(a) 6 O(γ, p) N Q m =.6 (b) 6 O(e, ep) N Q m =.6 Over the giant resonance region in 6 O, the decay takes place to the odd parity states of N at E x = 0 and 6. MeV as well as to both of the even parity states at E x =.7 and.0 MeV. The branching ratios are functions of the excitation energy in 6 O and of the authors: see (96DE4, 96MA4, 96MO, 966KOG, 966OW0, 967CAC, 967CAP, 968BAL, 969MU07, 969SH0). The results are in fair agreement with the predictions of the single-particle, single-hole theory of photoexcitation of 6 O, although some non-single-particle excitation appears to be necessary in some portions of the 6 O giant resonance: see, e.g. (968BAL). High-energy γ-rays have also reported from the decay of N*(7.0, 8., 9.0, 9.) (968BAL, 969HOT, 969MU07).

The He group to N*(.) does not show a stripping pattern (969PU04). See also (968BAJ; theor.). 9. 6 O(t, α) N Q m = 7.688 Angular distributions have been measured at E t = 0.9 to.7 MeV (967KOG; α 0 ),. to.9 MeV (99JO; α 0 ),. to.0 MeV (966SED; α 0 ), and MeV (96AJ0; α 0, α, α ).

MeV (964EC0). Angular correlation measurements lead to J =,, ( ), ( ) for N*(.8, 6., 8., 8.8) (96WA06), J =,,, 7 for N*(.8, 7.6, 7.0, 7.7) (966HA0), J = for N*(6.) (966LO0). The M/E mixing ratio of the 7.0 g.s. transition indicates an unusually large retardation of an E transition in a nonself-conjugate nucleus (966HA0). J = for N*(.7) and the mixing parameter fix J = for N*(0.4) which fed the first excited state of N (99HED) in the 4 C(p, γ) N reaction (96WA06).
