Abstract

The form factor for the excitation of the 3.56 MeV level in 6Li has been measured using the 140 MeV Saskatchewan electron linear accelerator. A simple analysis of the data using shell-model harmonic oscillator wave functions indicates that the harmonic oscillator parameter of the p-shell nucleons in 6Li must be substantially larger than that of the s-shell nucleons. A large discrepancy between the present results and those of Bernheim and Bishop is due to problems in analysis of their data caused by the presence of a large continuous cross section underlying at least the first two excited states of 6Li.
