The first unbound states of mirror 9Be and 9B nuclei

Abstract

The structures of the first excited states of mirror 9Be and 9B nuclei are studied by using the α + α + N three-body model and the complex scaling method. The resonance energy with a decay width of the 1/2+ state of 9B is calculated by taking into account the consistency with photodisintegration cross sections of 9Be into the 1/2+ state. We also compare the results with the measured data and other theories.
