Abstract

The mass of Ne16 has been measured using the Ne20(He4, He8)Ne16 reaction. The Q value of the reaction was determined to be -60.197±0.023 MeV, which corresponds to a mass excess of 23.984±0.024 MeV. The weighted average of this result with two previous measurements yields a mass excess of 23.994±0.020 MeV. This value is in reasonable agreement with the quadratic isobaric multiplet mass equation. The four parameter isobaric multiplet mass equation suggests a cubic or quartic coefficient of 4±3 keV for the A=16 multiplet.
