Abstract

α

-neutron coincidence measurements performed on the

{}^{208}{Pb} (α, α^{'} n)

reaction at

E_{α} = 66

MeV show clear evidence for short-lived

{}^{5}{He}

production. The majority of

α

particles with energy between 40 and 51.5 MeV are assigned to the (

α, {}^{5}{He}

) reaction channel.
