Structure of from the (p, d) reaction in inverse kinematics

We have performed the Be-11(p, d)Be-10 reaction in inverse kinematics. The 10Be were detected in the SPEG spectrometer and the deuterons detected in a silicon array in coincidence. The yield to the first excited state (2(+)) of Be-10 is greater than that to the 0(+) ground state, and increases with angle. Strong population of the two-alpha plus two-neutron states near 6 MeV tin the two-centre shell-model description) is observed. The ultimate goal is to study the microscopic structure of Be-11 from the extracted spectroscopic factors.
