Abstract

Differential cross sections for Li6,7 + Li6,7 + Be9 nuclear reactions leading to low-lying residual-nucleus states have been measured over the energy range from 4-14 MeV. In the Li7(Li7,α)Be10(3.37) case, the energy range was extended to 2.1 and 21 MeV. Striking enhancement and weakening of cross sections for formation of the 0.72-MeV state in B10 can be attributed to cluster structure of lithium nuclei. Resonance-like peaks are observed in some yields. Their general character is consistent with an extended-structure interpretation of the reaction mechanism.
