Spectroscopy of a $^{10}_{Lambda}$Be hypernucleus was carried out at JLab Hall C using the $(e,e^{prime}K^{+})$ reaction. A new magnetic spectrometer system (SPL+HES+HKS), specifically designed for high resolution hypernuclear spectroscopy, was used to obtain an energy spectrum with a resolution of 0.78 MeV (FWHM). The well-calibrated spectrometer system of the present experiment using the $p(e,e^{prime}K^{+})Lambda,Sigma^{0}$ reactions allowed us to determine the energy levels, and the binding energy of the ground state peak (mixture of 1$^{-}$ and 2$^{-}$ states) was obtained to be B$_{Lambda}$=8.55$pm$0.07(stat.)$pm$0.11(sys.) MeV. The result indicates that the ground state energy is shallower than that of an emulsion study by about 0.5 MeV which provides valuable experimental information on charge symmetry breaking effect in the $Lambda N$ interaction.

The reaction pp -> K+ + (Lambda p) was measured at Tp=1.953 GeV and Theta = 0 deg with a high missing mass resolution in order to study the Lambda p final state interaction. The large final state enhancement near the Lambda p threshold can be described using the standard Jost-function approach. The singlet and triplet scattering lengths and effective ranges are deduced by fitting simultaneously the Lambda p invariant mass spectrum and the total cross section data of the free Lambda p scattering.
The best examples of halo nuclei, exotic systems with a diffuse nuclear cloud surrounding a tightly-bound core, are found in the light, neutron-rich region, where the halo neutrons experience only weak binding and a weak, or no, potential barrier. Modern direct reaction measurement techniques provide powerful probes of the structure of exotic nuclei. Despite more than four decades of these studies on the benchmark one-neutron halo nucleus Be-11, the spectroscopic factors for the two bound states remain poorly constrained. In the present work, the Be-10(d,p) reaction has been used in inverse kinematics at four beam energies to study the structure of Be-11. The spectroscopic factors extracted using the adiabatic model, were found to be consistent across the four measurements, and were largely insensitive to the optical potential used. The extracted spectroscopic factor for a neutron in a nlj = 2s1/2 state coupled to the ground state of Be-10 is 0.71(5). For the first excited state at 0.32 MeV, a spectroscopic factor of 0.62(4) is found for the halo neutron in a 1p1/2 state.
Method: Measuring excitation functions for $^{6}$He+$alpha$ scattering, populating states in the excitation energy range from 4.5 MeV to 8 MeV in $^{10}$Be using a $^6$He rare-isotope beam and a thick helium gas target. Results: No new excited states in $^{10}$Be have been observed. Stringent limitation on the possible degree of $alpha$-clustering of the hypothetical yrast 6$^+$ state has been obtained. Conclusions: The high-spin members of the $alpha$:2n:$alpha$ molecular-like rotational band configuration, that is considered to have a 0$^+$ bandhead at 6.18 MeV, either do not exist or have small overlap with the $^{6}$He(g.s.)+$alpha$ channel.
The quantification of isotopes content in materials is extremely important in many research and industrial fields. Accurate determination of boron concentration is very critical in semiconductor, superconductor and steel industry, in environmental and medical applications as well as in nuclear and astrophysics research. The detection of B isotopes and of their ratio in synthetic and natural materials may be accomplished by gamma spectroscopy using the $^{10}$B(p,$alpha_1 gamma$)$^7$Be and $^{11}$B(p,$gamma$)$^{12}$C reactions at low proton energy. Here, the $^{10}$B(p,$alpha_1 gamma$)$^7$Be cross section is reported in the center of mass energy range 0.35 to 1.8 MeV. The $E_gamma$= 429 keV $gamma$ rays were detected at 45$^circ$ and 90$^circ$ using a NaI(Tl) and an HPGe detectors, respectively. In the presented energy range, previous cross sections data revealed discrepancies and normalisation issues. Existing data are compared to the new absolute measurement and discussed. The present data have been subtracted from a previous measurement of the total cross section to derive the contribution of the $alpha_0$ channel.
The extraction of detailed nuclear structure information from transfer reactions requires reliable, well-normalized data as well as optical potentials and a theoretical framework demonstrated to work well in the relevant mass and beam energy ranges. It is rare that the theoretical ingredients can be tested well for exotic nuclei owing to the paucity of data. The halo nucleus Be-11 has been examined through the 10Be(d,p) reaction in inverse kinematics at equivalent deuteron energies of 12,15,18, and 21.4 MeV. Elastic scattering of Be-10 on protons was used to select optical potentials for the analysis of the transfer data. Additionally, data from the elastic and inelastic scattering of Be-10 on deuterons was used to fit optical potentials at the four measured energies. Transfers to the two bound states and the first resonance in Be-11 were analyzed using the Finite Range ADiabatic Wave Approximation (FR-ADWA). Consistent values of the spectroscopic factor of both the ground and first excited states were extracted from the four measurements, with average values of 0.71(5) and 0.62(4) respectively. The calculations for transfer to the first resonance were found to be sensitive to the size of the energy bin used and therefore could not be used to extract a spectroscopic factor.
