Near-threshold proton resonances in11B

ORAL

Abstract

The study of near-threshold proton resonances in 11B has been the object of several recent theoretical and experimental studies due to its unique structural and decay properties. An experiment to search for charge particles decaying from low-lying, low spin resonance states in $^{11}$B was performed at the John D. Fox Superconducting Linear Accelerator Laboratory at Florida State University, using a radioactive 10Be beam via the 10B(d,n) reaction. The 11B recoils were measured in coincidence with an array of silicon detectors where protons and alpha particles decaying from unbound states in 11B were identified. Details on the experiment and preliminary results will be presented in this work.
