Abstract

Differential cross sections for inelastic scattering leading to the excitation of some nuclear states situated near neutron-emission thresholds were analyzed. With the aid of a modified diffraction model, abnormally large radii were found for the 1/2 +1 state of the 13C nucleus at 3.09 MeV, for the first levels of positive-parity rotational bands in the 9Be (1/2+ level at 1.68 MeV and 5/2+ level at 3.05 MeV) and 11Be (5/2+ level at 1.78 MeV and 3/2+ level at 3.41 MeV) nuclei, and for the 2 +1 state of the 14Be nucleus at 1.54 MeV and 1 1 state of the 12Be nucleus at 2.7 MeV. All of these states possess signatures typical of neutron halos.
