Level parameters of short-lived nuclear states

Two-proton final-state interactions in the reactions ³He (d,t)2p, d(³He, t)2p, ³He(³He, 4He)2p, and p(³He, d)2p

“…The longer lifetime from the other reactions could be attributed to a decrease in the width of the peak due to the preference for low relative energies for the two protons by the reaction mechanism. A similar result has been observed in reactions leaving two alpha particles in the final state (Berkowitz, 1964 …”

Effects due to Coulomb interaction in the sequential decay reaction2H(?,p ?)n

“…is presented in Table 1. According to the analysis of three particle experiments by Berkowitz [3] there seems to be a correlation between the width of the particle-unstable nucleus 8Be(lst) and its relative velocity with respect to the 3rd particle present in the final channel-the width increases for increasing relative velocity. There seems to appear a similar tendency for the 5He(g.s.)…”

“…Since several years there have been reported significant differences in the width of broad resonances in light nuclei by various authors [1][2][3]. Our recent investigations of recoiling 5He(g.s).…”

“…Results for 5He(g.s.) and SBe(lst) have been compiled and discussed by Berkowitz already in 1964 [3], and by Ohlsen et al [2]. A revised summary for 5He(g.s.)…”

“…It may well be that the energy and width of such a broad peak depend on the reaction used to study it. 11 We have made a special effort to determine the energy and width of this state as observed by inelastic a-particle scattering.…”
