The deuteron-emission channel in the beta-decay of the halo-nucleus 11Li was measured at the ISAC facility at TRIUMF by implanting post-accelerated 11Li ions into a segmented silicon detector. The events of interest were identified by correlating the decays of 11Li with those of the daughter nuclei. This method allowed the energy spectrum of the emitted deuterons to be extracted, free from contributions from other channels, and a precise value for the branching ratio B_d = 1.30(13) x 10-4 to be deduced for E(c.m.) > 200 keV. The results provide the first unambiguous experimental evidence that the decay takes place essentially in the halo of 11Li, and that it proceeds mainly to the 9Li + d continuum, opening up a new means to study of the halo wave function of 11Li.

The beta-delayed charged particle emission from ^11Li has been studied with emphasis on the three-body n+alpha+^6He and five-body 2alpha+3n channels from the 10.59 and 18.15 MeV states in ^11Be. Monte Carlo simulations using an R-matrix formalism lea
d to the conclusion that the ^AHe resonance states play a significant role in the break-up of these states. The results exclude an earlier assumption of a phase-space description of the break-up process of the 18.15 MeV state. Evidence for extra sequential decay paths is found for both states.
Background: Measurements of $beta$ decay provide important nuclear structure information that can be used to probe isospin asymmetries and inform nuclear astrophysics studies. Purpose: To measure the $beta$-delayed $gamma$ decay of $^{26}$P and compa
re the results with previous experimental results and shell-model calculations. Method: A $^{26}$P fast beam produced using nuclear fragmentation was implanted into a planar germanium detector. Its $beta$-delayed $gamma$-ray emission was measured with an array of 16 high-purity germanium detectors. Positrons emitted in the decay were detected in coincidence to reduce the background. Results: The absolute intensities of $^{26}$P $beta$-delayed $gamma$-rays were determined. A total of six new $beta$-decay branches and 15 new $gamma$-ray lines have been observed for the first time in $^{26}$P $beta$-decay. A complete $beta$-decay scheme was built for the allowed transitions to bound excited states of $^{26}$Si. $ft$ values and Gamow-Teller strengths were also determined for these transitions and compared with shell model calculations and the mirror $beta$-decay of $^{26}$Na, revealing significant mirror asymmetries. Conclusions: A very good agreement with theoretical predictions based on the USDB shell model is observed. The significant mirror asymmetry observed for the transition to the first excited state ($delta=51(10)%$) may be evidence for a proton halo in $^{26}$P.
Remarkable results have been published recently on the $beta$ decay of $^{56}$Zn. In particular, the rare and exotic $beta$-delayed $gamma$-proton emission has been detected for the first time in the $fp$ shell. Here we focus the discussion on this e
xotic decay mode and on the observed competition between $beta$-delayed protons and $beta$-delayed $gamma$ rays from the Isobaric Analogue State.
M1 transitions from the $^6$Li($0^+;T=1$) state at 3.563 MeV to the $^6$Li($1^+$) ground state and to the $alpha+d$ continuum are studied in a three-body model. The bound states are described as an $alpha+n+p$ system in hyperspherical coordinates on
a Lagrange mesh. The ground-state magnetic moment and the gamma width of the $^6$Li(0$^+$) resonance are well reproduced. The halo-like structure of the $^6$Li$(0^+)$ resonance is confirmed and is probed by the M1 transition probability to the $alpha+d$ continuum. The spectrum is sensitive to the description of the $alpha+d$ phase shifts. The corresponding gamma width is around 1.0 meV, with optimal potentials. Charge symmetry is analyzed through a comparison with the $beta$-delayed deuteron spectrum of $^6$He. In $^6$He, a nearly perfect cancellation effect between short-range and halo contributions was found. A similar analysis for the $^6$Li($0^+;T=1$) $gamma$ decay is performed; it shows that charge-symmetry breaking at large distances, due to the different binding energies and to different charges, reduces this effect. The present branching ratio $Gamma_{gamma}(0^+to alpha+d)/Gamma_{gamma}(0^+to1^+)approx 1.3times 10^{-4}$ should be observable with current experimental facilities.
Beta-delayed proton emission from nuclides in the neighborhood of 100Sn was studied at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory. The nuclei were produced by fragmentation of a 120 MeV/nucleon 112Sn primary beam on a Be target. Beam purificat
ion was provided by the A1900 Fragment Separator and the Radio Frequency Fragment Separator. The fragments of interest were identified and their decay was studied with the NSCL Beta Counting System (BCS) in conjunction with the Segmented Germanium Array (SeGA). The nuclei 96Cd, 98Ing, 98Inm and 99In were identified as beta-delayed proton emitters, with branching ratios bp = 5.5(40)%, 5.5+3 -2%, 19(2)% and 0.9(4)%, respectively. The bp for 89Ru, 91,92Rh, 93Pd and 95Ag were deduced for the first time with bp = 3+1.9 -1.7%, 1.3(5)%, 1.9(1)%, 7.5(5)% and 2.5(3)%, respectively. The bp = 22(1)% for 101Sn was deduced with higher precision than previously reported. The impact of the newly measured bp values on the composition of the type-I X-ray burst ashes was studied.
