摘要
The decay properties of the linear-chain states in C-14 are investigated by using antisymmetrized molecular dynamics. The calculation predicts two rotational bands with linear-chain configurations having the pi-bond and sigma-bond valence neutrons. For the pi-bond linear-chain, the calculated excitation energies and the widths of alpha-decay to the ground state of Be-10 reasonably agree with the experimental candidates observed by the alpha + Be-10 resonant scattering. On the other hand, the sigma-bond linear-chain is the candidate of the higher-lying resonant states reported by the breakup reaction. As the evidence of the sigma-bond linear chain, we discuss its decay pattern. It is found that the sigma-bond linear chain not only decays to the excited band of Be-10 but also decays to the three-body channel of He-6 + alpha + alpha, and the branching ratio of these decays are comparable. Hence, we suggest that this characteristic decay pattern is a strong signature of the linear-chain formation and a key observable to distinguish two different linear chains.
