Abstract

The β-delayed neutron decay of 17B was studied using a radioactive ion beam. The neutron energies, measured via time-of-flight, give information on states in 17C above the 16C + neutron threshold. States in 17C were found at excitation energies of 2.25(2) MeV, 2.64(2) MeV and 3.82(5) MeV, and possibly at 1.18(1) MeV. These low lying states are of possible interest for nuclear physics as well as for astrophysics.
