Mass of ¹⁰C: From the Q-value of the ¹⁰B(p, n)¹⁰C reaction (TA61E: Q₀ = -4.393 ± 0.025 MeV) and the β⁺ end-point energy (BA63R: E_β⁺(max) = 1.865 ± 0.015 MeV), the mass excess of ¹⁰C is 15.658 ± 0.013 MeV, based on ¹²C ≡ 0 (MA65A).

1. 10C(β+)10B

Qm = 3.606

The decay is complex. See ¹⁰B.

2. 10B(p, n)10C

Qm = -4.388

The ground state threshold occurs at E_p = 4.835 ± 0.025 MeV (TA61E). A sharp rise in the cross section curve at E_p = 8.55 MeV is attributed to a state in ¹⁰C at E_x = 3.38 ± 0.03 MeV (EA63). This state has also been observed directly as a neutron group (E_x = 3.34 ± 0.2 MeV) at E_p = 17.2 MeV. Wide or unresolved states at E_x ~ 5.1 MeV may also be indicated (AJ54B). The γ-decay of the first excited state has been observed: E_x = 3.35 ± 0.02 MeV (SE65B). See also (VA65) and ¹¹C.

3. 10B(3He, t)10C

Qm = -3.624

See (OS64).

4. 12C(γ, 2n)10C

Qm = -31.801

See (OC59).

5. 12C(p, t)10C

Qm = -23.319

At E_p = 155 MeV, triton groups are observed to the ground state of ¹⁰C and to excited states at 3.4 ± 0.1, 5.6 ± 0.1, (7.2 ± 0.2), and 10.2 ± 0.2 MeV. The 10.2 MeV state has a width of ~ 1.5 MeV (BA65O). See also (RA60, RA61A, CO62H).
