13B (59AJ76)


(Not illustrated)

GENERAL: See also Table 13.1 [Table of Energy Levels] (in PDF or PS).

Mass of 13B: The mass excess of 13B is 20.40 ± 0.05 MeV from the Q of the reaction 7Li(7Li, p)13B (NO57), and Wapstra's masses (WA55C) for 7Li and 1H. 13B is then stable by 4.88 MeV to decay into 12B + n, by 11.00 MeV to decay into 10Be + t and by 11.3 MeV to decay into 9Li + α.

1. 13B(β-)13C Qm = 13.44

The half-life of 13B is (35 ± 15) x 10-3 sec (NO56B). Attempts to observe delayed neutrons from the decay of neutron-unstable states of 13C have been unsuccessful (HU53A, NO56B). It is pointed out by (NO57) that transitions to such states are unlikely if 13B has the expected J = 3/2-. See also (SN48, SH52).

2. 7Li(7Li, p)13B Qm = 5.97
Q0 = 5.97 ± 0.05 (NO57).

This reaction has been observed for E(7Li) = 1.4 to 2.0 MeV (AL56, NO57, LI58C). At E(7Li) = 2 MeV, no proton groups have been observed corresponding to excited states of 13B below Ex = 2.9 MeV (LI58C). See also 14C.

3. 11B(t, p)13B Qm = 0.24
