Abstract

The α+⁶He decay of ¹⁰Be has been studied via the ⁷Li(⁷Li,α⁶He)α reaction at 58 MeV. The excitation energy of the ¹⁰Be nucleus was determined following the coincident detection of the α and ⁶He decay products. A study of the fragment angular correlations has provided a spin assignment consistent with the previously reported value of 3^- for the 10.15 MeV state in ¹⁰Be. A tentative assignment of (4 ⁺), 6⁺ is proposed for the 11.76 MeV state.
