The t+n+n system and 5H.

The one-proton knockout channel from 6He (240 MeV/u) impinging on a carbon target has been investigated. The triton fragments originating from this channel were detected in coincidence with the two neutrons. A broad structure, peaked at 3 MeV above the t+2n threshold, is observed in the t+n+n-relative energy spectrum. It is shown that this structure is mainly due to a I(pi)=1/2(+) resonance as expected for the 5H ground state, and from the observed angular and energy correlations, being used for the first time in 5H studies, that the neutrons to a large extent occupy the p shell.

Experimental evidence for the existence of 7H and for a specific structure of 8He.

Experimental search for the superheavy 7H isotope was performed in the reaction p(8He,pp)7H with the 8He beam at 61.3A MeV. The evidence for existence of the 7H state near the t+4n threshold was obtained. In the same experiment, the p(8He,t) reaction populating the ground and excited 2(+) state of 6He was investigated. The obtained results argue on a specific structure of the 8He ground state containing the 6He subsystem in the excited 2(+) state with a large weight.

Evidence for a new low-lying resonance state in 7He.

Low-lying resonance states in 7He(6He+n), formed after fragmentation reactions of a 227 MeV/nucleon 8He beam on a carbon target, have been studied. Coincidences between 6He nuclei and neutrons, corresponding to the one-neutron knockout channel in 8He, were selected. The relative energy spectrum in the 6He+n system shows a structure, which is interpreted as the 7He ( Ipi = 3/2(-)) ground state, unbound with 0.43(2) MeV relative to the 6He+n system and a width of Gamma = 0.15(8) MeV overlapping with an excited ( Ipi = 1/2(-)) state observed at 1.0(1) MeV with a width of Gamma = 0.75(8) MeV.

Two-proton widths of 12O, 16Ne, and three-body mechanism of Thomas-Ehrman shift.

Two-proton decays of 12O and 16Ne ground states are studied in a three-body model. We have found that the two-proton widths for the states should be much less than the existing experimental values (about 10 times for 12O and about 100 times for 16Ne). We also have found that the structure of these states differs significantly from the mirror isobaric analog states (IAS): breaking of isobaric symmetry is at the level of tens of percents. Together with a corresponding decrease of the Coulomb energy, this effect can be considered as a three-body mechanism of the Thomas-Ehrman shift.
