Abstract
An -matrix model for three-body final states is presented and applied to a recent measurement of the neutron energy spectrum from the reaction. The calculation includes the and interactions in the final state, angular momentum conservation, antisymmetrization, and the interference between different channels. A good fit to the measured spectrum is obtained, where clear evidence for the ground state is observed. The model is also used to predict the -particle spectrum from as well as particle spectra from . The -matrix approach presented here is very general and can be adapted to a wide variety of problems with three-body final states.
