10 Search for Tetraneutron at SPIRAL/GANIL RI Beams : new opportunities for studying multineutron systems?? Prepared clusters in light neutron-rich nuclei (Ikeda) observable using simple reaction Recently : 14 Be Break-up GANIL (F.M.Marques et al. PRC(2002)) 10 Be 6 events compatible with a bound 4 n! E p /E n in neutron counters

11 Predictions for tetraneutron UNBOUND! Attempts to bind the tetraneutron Slight changes of 2-body forces modify 3-body forces Add 4-body (T=2) I show that it does not seem possible to change modern nuclear Hamiltonians to bind tetraneutron without destroying many other successful predictions of those Hamiltonians. This means that, should a recent experimental claim of a bound tetraneutron be confirmed, our understanding of nuclear forces will have to be significantly changed S. C. Pieper, PRL 90, June 2003 it is pointed out that from the theoretical perspective the two-body nucleon-nucleon force cannot by itself bind four neutrons, even if it can bind a dineutron. A very strong phenomenological four-nucleon (4N) force is needed in order to bind the tetraneutron. Such a 4N force, if it existed, would bind 4 He by about 100 MeV N.K.

Astrophysics, e.g. 60 Fe(d,p)! 60 Fe(n,!)! 2-nucleon transfer reactions "d-transfer for neutron-proton pairing in N=Z nuclei "2p- and 2n-transfer: detailed spectroscopy very far from stability! Helium induced reactions - cryogenic target developed different selectivity Ex: (", 3 He) alternative to (d,p)! Pygmy resonances (in proton-rich nuclei), GMR studies! etc
