Beta-delayed multi-particle emission in proton rich nuclei

In this contribution examples of the application of new technologies to disentangle the mechanism of beta-delayed multi-particle emission are given. In particular the mechanism of β-delayed two-proton emission from 31Ar is resolved and proved to be sequential, both for isospin allowed and isospin forbidden transitions. The analysis of the 9C decay has been focused in the study of the 12.2 MeV state in 9B. The decay of this state to pαα occurs sequentially, partial decay branches through the 8Be(0+,2+) and 5Li(3/2−,1/2−) intermediate states have been determined. A BGT value of 1.20(15) is deduced, compared with the BGT-value of the mirror transition, a asymmetry factor δ=3.7(12) is obtained, the largest ever observed. A preview of β3α data from 12N decay is discussed.
