1. 9Li(β-)9Be

Qm = 13.606

The half-life of ⁹Li is 178.3 ± 0.4 msec (AL76). See also (79AJ01). ⁹Li decays to a number of states in ⁹Be: see reaction 12 in ⁹Be and Table 9.7 (in PDF or PS). The nature of the decay to ⁹Be*(0, 2.43) with J^π = 3/2^-, 5/2^- is evidence for J^π = 3/2^- for ⁹Li_g.s.. The probablility for delayed neutron decay, P_n, is (49.5 ± 5)% (LA81G): see Table 9.7 (in PDF or PS).

2. 7Li(t, p)9Li

Qm = -2.386

Protons are observed to excited states at E_x = 2.691 ± 0.005 MeV (MI64E), 4.31 ± 0.03, 5.38 ± 0.06 and 6.41 ± 0.02 MeV (YO71B) [Γ_c.m. = 250 ± 30, 600 ± 100, < 100 keV], 4.31 ± 0.02 and 6.435 ± 0.020 MeV (AJ78A) [Γ_c.m. = 100 ± 30, 40 ± 20 keV]. Angular distributions are reported at E_t = 11.3 (MI64E; t₀), 15 MeV (YO71B: t₀, t₂, t₄) and at 23 MeV (AJ78A: t₀, t₁, t₂, t₄). They are consistent with J^π = 3/2^-, (1/2^-) and >/= 9/2 for ⁹Li*(0, 2.69, 6.43) (AJ78A). See also (AB79G, AB80E, CO83H) and ¹⁰Be.

3. 9Be(γ, π+)9Li

Qm = -153.174

At E_γ = 175, 187, 200 MeV, the cross section for production of ⁹Li_g.s. at θ_π = 90° has been measured by (TE82). See also (BO79EE, NI80A).

4. 9Be(n, p)9Li

Qm = -12.824

See (BR81H) and (79AJ01).

5. 9Be(7Li, 7Be)9Li

Qm = -14.468

See (AL82B: E(⁷Li) = 78 MeV).

6. 11B(6Li, 8B)9Li

Qm = -25.121

At E(⁶Li) = 80 MeV the angular distribution to ⁹Li_g.s. has been measured. States at E_x = 2.59 ± 0.10, 4.36 ± 0.10 and 6.38 ± 0.12 MeV are also populated (WE77A, WE77).
