Description

The β-delayed neutron decay of 17B was studied using a radioactive ion beam. The neutron energies, measured via time of flight, give information on states in 17C above the 16C+neutron threshold. States in 17C were found at excitation energies of 2.25(2), 2.64(2), and 3.82(5) MeV, and possibly at 1.18(1) MeV. These low-lying states are of possible interest for nuclear physics as well as for astrophysics. copyright 1996 The American Physical Society
