18N (1987AJ02)


(See the Isobar Diagram for 18N)

GENERAL: See (1983AJ01) and Table 18.2 [Table of Energy Levels] (in PDF or PS).

See (1981NAZQ, 1983ANZQ, 1983FR1A, 1983SH44, 1983WI1A, 1984AS1D, 1984HI1A, 1986AN07, 1986BI1A, 1986HA1B, 1986MA48, 1986ME1F, 1987RI03).

Mass of 18N:The atomic mass excess derived from the Q-value of the 18O(7Li, 7Be)18N reaction is 13.117 ± 0.020 MeV (1983PU01). 18N is then stable with respect to breakup into 17N + n by 2.825 MeV. See (1983AJ01) for the earlier work.

1. 18N(β-)18O Qm = 13.899

The half-life of 18N is 0.624 ± 0.012 sec (1982OL01). The decay branches are displayed in Table 18.9 (in PDF or PS). The nature of the decay leads to Jπ = 1- for the 18N ground state (1982OL01). See also (1983SN03).

2. 14C(7Li, 3He)18N Qm = -10.122

The work described in (1983AJ01) has not been published.

3. 14C(18O, 14N)18N Qm = -13.743

At E(18O) = 92.2 MeV groups are observed to the ground state of 18N (unresolved) and to an excited state at Ex = 575 ± 25 keV (1980NA14).

4. 18O(π-, π0)18N Qm = -9.295

See (1983AS01, 1984AS05).

5. 18O(t, 3He)18N Qm = -13.881

See (1983AJ01).

6. 18O(7Li, 7Be)18N Qm = -14.761
Q0 = -14761 ± 20 keV (1983PU01).

At E(7Li) = 52 MeV, 7Be groups are observed corresponding to the excitation of the states displayed in Table 18.2 (in PDF or PS) (1983PU01).

7. 18O(11B, 11C)18N Qm = -15.881

See (1983PU01).
