Abstract

Cross sections measured for the interactions of incident neutron-excess nuclei 6He and 11Li with other nuclei are analyzed in terms of expressions obtained for relevant integrated cross sections within the diffraction approximation. The results of this analysis suggest that there exists a dineutron configuration in the 6He nucleus and that there is no such configuration in the 11Li nucleus. On the basis of calculations performed for various observables, some new specific experiments are proposed for discovering dineutrons more reliably in nuclei having a neutron halo.
