Search for Li4

Abstract

The possibility that Li4 might be stable against decay into He3 and a proton has led to revived speculation(1) concerning the effect which such a nucleus would have in stellar processes. Although there are good theoretical and some experimental arguments(1,2) against the existence of a β-active Li4, it seemed important to make a direct, experimental investigation of this nucleus.
