Description

Electric ground-state properties of 7Li have been measured in a consistent way by observation of the Coulomb interaction of aligned 7Li ions with heavy target nuclei. Besides the quadrupole moment (Q/sub s/ = 3.70 +- 0.08 e2 fm2) and the B(E2,(3/2)-→(1/2)-) value (8.3 +- 0.5 e2 fm4), the tensor moments of the nuclear polarizability tau12 and tau11 were determined (tau12 = tau11 = 0.23 +- 0.06 fm3). Present theoretical investigations on the structure of 7Li reveal difficulties in providing a unified description of all four properties
