Abstract

The isotopes15B,18C,19,20N,34,35Al and39P have been produced as projectile-like fragments from the interaction of a86Kr beam of 45 MeV/u from GANIL with a181Ta target. Separated by the 0° magnetic analyser LISE, the nuclei are identified by means of aΔE- E semiconductor telescope. It is surrounded, in a geometry close to 4π, by a thin plastic scintillator (NE 102) and a large volume liquid scintillator (NE 213) for the detection of betas and neutrons, respectively, from the decay of the implanted nuclei. By observation of theβ-delayed neutrons, the half-livesT 1/2 and neutron emission probabilitiesP n have been measured. TheT 1/2 of18C,20N,35Al,39P and Pn of18C,19,20N,34,35Al and39P are determined for the first time. For the isotopes17C,36,37Si and38P upper limits of Pn are deduced.
