Abstract
The structure of the 10 Li unbound nucleus is a subject of large interest and its description is nowadays a matter of debate. We have investigated this system using the d( 9 Li,p) 10 Li one-neutron transfer reaction at 100 MeV in inverse kinematics. The experiment was performed at the ISACII facility at TRIUMF laboratory. The excitation energy spectrum has been reconstructed by measuring the emitted protons at backward angles and the 9 Li at forward angles.
Highlights
The exploration of the 10Li nucleus is an interesting topic since it is an exotic system, unbound in the ground state
In a recent theoretical study of the 10Li low energy resonances [13], a state dependent treatment of the pairing interaction, beyond the usual BCS approximation, has proven to be necessary to reproduce the energy spectra measured in the REX-ISOLDE experiment

Summary
The exploration of the 10Li nucleus is an interesting topic since it is an exotic system, unbound in the ground state. With the advent of radioactive beam facilities, the new opportunity to explore nuclear phenomena far from the stability valley has driven a renewed interest to transfer reactions, to be studied in inverse kinematics.
