Abstract

The beta decay half-lives of seven neutron-rich isotopes, $^{9}\mathrm{Li}$, $^{12}\mathrm{B}$, $^{13}\mathrm{B}$, $^{15}\mathrm{B}$, $^{17}\mathrm{B}$, $^{17}\mathrm{C}$, and $^{19}\mathrm{N}$, have been measured. The isotopes were produced by bombarding a tantalum target with a $^{22}\mathrm{Ne}$ beam with 35 MeV/nucleon. The isotopes were separated and identified using a reaction product mass separator. The half-life measurement of $^{17}\mathrm{B}$, 5.3(6) ms, is the first for this isotope.
