In this work we investigate the two-neutron decay of 13Li and of the excited states of 11Li populated via one-proton removal from 14Be and 12Be, respectively. A phenomenological model is used to describe the decay of 11Li and 13Li. While…

We investigate the three-body Coulomb breakup of a two-neutron halo nucleus $^{11}$Li. We use the coupled-channel $^9$Li + $n$ + $n$ three-body model, which includes the coupling between last neutron states and the various $2p$-$2h$…
We study the roles of the tensor and pairing correlations on the halo formation in 11Li with an extended 9Li+n+n model. We first solve the ground state of 9Li in the shell model basis by taking 2p-2h states using the Gaussian functions with…
The four nucleons in $^8$Li outside the $\alpha$-particle ($\alpha=^4$He) can be divided into pairs of one neutron ($n$) and 3 nucleons in the triton ($t=^3$H), or 2 in the deuteron ($d=^2$H) and two neutrons in a dineutron ($^2n$). The…
