14Be (1986AJ01)(See the Isobar Diagram for 14Be) 14Be has been observed in the 4.8 GeV proton bombardment of uranium [see (1976AJ04)], in the bombardment of 232Th by 145 MeV 15N ions (1982OG02; forward differential cross section is 4 × 10-5 mb/sr) and in the 14C(π-, π+)14Be reaction (1984GI09; Eπ- = 164 MeV, θ = 5°). It has not been observed in the 48Ca(14C, 14Be)48Ti reaction (E(14C) = 87.4 MeV, θ = 4° - 8°) (1981NAZQ). A group in the (π-, π+) reaction is observed at Q = -37.08 ± 0.13 MeV [(Value quoted by (1984GI09) + 2mec2.)] with a cross section of 0.73 ± 0.19 μb/sr (1984GI09). If this is the ground-state group, the atomic mass excess is 40.10 ± 0.13 MeV. 14Be is then bound by 2.97 and 1.12 MeV, respectively, with respect to decay into 13Be + n and 12Be + 2n. See also (1984EP1A) and (1981KI04, 1981SE06, 1983ANZQ, 1985WI1B; theor.).
