Abstract

The 9Li + 2H reaction has been investigated at 11 AMeV incident energy at the ISAC II facility (TRIUMF). In the present paper we focus on the one-neutron transfer channel, which potentially holds spectroscopic information on the unbound nucleus 10Li. The TUDA setup has been used in order to detect and identify the outgoing 9Li at forward angles and the recoil protons at backward angles. This setup allows to study the 10Li emitted in the crucial region at forward angles in the center of mass.

Highlights

Transfer reactions are essential tools to probe selected components of the nuclear wave functions. Thanks to that they have been used in the past and are still crucial for nuclear spectroscopy purposes
On one hand there is a specific attention to understand how the transfer mechanism is influenced by the reduction of the binding energy of the projectile [1]; on the other hand, the measured spectra could reveal unexpected features due to nucleon correlations which are beyond the mean field description of nuclear structure [2]
The study of the unbound system 10Li is of great interest since the knowledge of its structure is a crucial ingredient in the description of the two-neutron halo nucleus 11Li
