Abstract

The spatial structure of lithium isotopes is studied with the aid of the charge-exchange and (t, p) reactions on lithium nuclei. It is shown that an excited isobaric-analog state of 6Li (0+, 3.56MeV) has a halo structure formed by a proton and a neutron, that, in the 9Li nucleus, there is virtually no neutron halo, and that 11Li is a Borromean nucleus formed by a 9Li core and a two-neutron halo manifesting itself in cigar-like and dineutron configurations.
