Abstract

The β-delayed neutron decay of N18 has been studied using a time-of-flight array with high efficiency. The N18 ions were produced by fragmentation of a E/A=75 MeV Ne22 beam. Transitions to nine neutron unbound states have been observed with a total branching ratio of 2.2±0.4%. The results are compared with measurements of the decay to γ- and α-emitting states and the differences between the present results and a recent measurement of the Pn value are discussed.
