8He spectroscopy in stopped pion absorption by 11B nuclei

Abstract

Abstract Level structure of 8He has been studied in the reaction of stopped pion absorption by 11B nuclei 11B(π−,pd)X. The experiment was carried out at the LANL with a two-arm semiconductor spectrometer. The missing mass spectrum in the range 0 MeV < MM < 50 MeV has been described by the superposition of phase-space distributions and the six states of 8He. Parameters of these states have been compared with data of other experimental and theoretical works.
