Structure of Neutron-rich Be and C Isotopes

The structure of neutron-rich beryllium isotopes has been investigated using different heavy-ion-induced transfer reactions. In neutron transfer reactions, the population of final states shows a strong sensitivity to the chosen core nucleus, i.e., the target nuclei 9Be or 10Be, respectively. Molecular rotational bands up to high excitation energies are observed with 9Be as the core due to its pronounced 2-cluster structure, whereas only a few states at low excitation energies are populated with 10Be as the core. For 11Be, a detailed investigation has been performed for the three states at 3.41, 3.89, and 3.96 MeV, which resulted in the most probable spin-parity assignments 3/2+, 5/2-, and 3/2-, respectively. Furthermore, we have studied particle– hole states of 16C using the 13C(12C, 9C)16C reaction and found 14 previously unknown states. Using the 12C(12C, 9C)15C reaction, five new states were observed for 15C.
