Abstract
The energy spectrum of neutrons from the reaction 7Li(d,n)8 Be at 700 keV bombarding energy has been studied with nuclear emulsions at 0, 75, and 135�. Both resolution and statistics compare favourably with those of previous nuclear emulsion measurements of this spectrum. The results do not confirm the suggestions made by earlier workers that levels at 2�2, 4�1, 5�3, and 7�5 MeV in 8Be participate in the reaction, and support the view that the only excited state below 9 MeV in 8Be is the well-known broad level at 2�9 MeV.
