Mass and half-life of 9C

An error occurred while generating the citation.

Abstract

The mass of 9C has been measured by counting delayed protons near the 7Be(3He,n)9C threshold. The data are consistent with an s-wave threshold at E3He=8980±5 keV, giving a 9C mass excess of 28 907±4 keV, and confirming the reported deviation of the A=9, lowest T=3 /2 quartet from the quadratic mass formula. The half-life of 9C, measured with a multiscaler, is 126.5 ± 2 msec.
