Abstract

A direct mass measurement of the very-short-lived halo nuclide 11Li (T 1/2=8.7 ms) has been performed with the transmission mass spectrometer MISTRAL. The preliminary result for the two-neutron separation energy is S 2n=376±5 keV, improving the precision seven times with an increase of 20% compared to the previous value. In order to confirm this value, the mass excess of 11Be has also been measured, ME=20171±4 keV, in good agreement with the previous value.
