Spectroscopy of $^{13}$Li

ORAL

Abstract

The spectroscopy of neutron-unbound levels in $^{13}$Li is presented. The $^{13}$Li were formed by a one-proton knockout reaction from a 53.6 MeV/u $^{14}$Be beam at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory. The decay energy spectrum was measured with the Modular Neutron Array (MoNA) and Sweeper superconducting dipole magnet experimental setup. $^{13}$Li decays via two-neutron emission and Geant4 simulations will be shown. The results will also be compared to Yu. Aksyutina \textit{et al.}, Phys. Lett B \textbf{666}, 430 (2008).
