Abstract

The isobaric analogue state of the ground state of the halo nucleus 6He in 6Li has been studied in a pionic fusion experiment at the CELSIUS storage ring facility in Uppsala, Sweden. The 6Li ions were detected in a zero-degree spectrometer situated in the fourth quadrant of the CELSIUS ring. Differential cross-sections were measured at two energies corresponding to Ec.m.=1.2 and 1.9 MeV above the absolute threshold. The total cross sections are σ = 228 ± 6-0+70 nb and 141 ± 12-0+42 nb respectively.
