RESUMO
The 0+ ground state of the 10He nucleus produced in the 3H(8He,p)10He reaction was found at about 2.1±0.2 MeV (Γâ¼2 MeV) above the three-body ^{8}He+n+n breakup threshold. Angular correlations observed for ^{10}He decay products show prominent interference patterns allowing us to draw conclusions about the structure of low-energy excited states. We interpret the observed correlations as a coherent superposition of a broad 1- state having a maximum at energy 4-6 MeV and a 2+ state above 6 MeV, setting both on top of the 0+ state "tail." This anomalous level ordering indicates that the breakdown of the N=8 shell known in 12Be thus extends also to the ^{10}He system.
RESUMO
The 5H system was produced in the 3H(t,p)5H reaction studied with a 58 MeV tritium beam at small c.m. angles. High statistics data were used to reconstruct the energy and angular correlations between the 5H decay fragments. A broad structure in the 5H missing mass spectrum showing up above 2.5 MeV was identified as a mixture of the 3/2+ and 5/2+ states. The data also present evidence that the 1/2+ ground state of 5H is located at about 2 MeV.
