Abstract
The decay from the 2+ 2 near-Threshold resonance in 14C, located 142 keV above the neutron emission threshold, was searched for in a fusionevaporation experiment at Argonne National Laboratory with the GODDESS setup, comprising the GRETINA ?-ray spectrometer coupled to the ORRUBA charged particle detector. The Shell Model Embedded in the Continuum predicts a significant enhancement of the 2+ 2 0 transition probability, owing to a collectivization of the near-Threshold state. The corresponding branch is expected to be of the order of 5 × 10-5, which is comparable with the sensitivity of this experiment.
