Resumo

The nd breakup reaction at an energy of 5 MeV was studied on the RADEX neutron channel of the INR RAS. As a result of comparing the experimental data with the simulation results, the energy of the virtual 1S0 np state Enp = 40 ± 2 keV and the corresponding singlet np scattering length anp = −30.9 ± 0.8 fm were extracted. It was assumed that the obtained anp value, together with the data of other experiments on the study of nd and dd breakup reactions at different energies, are subject to the influence of 3N forces. The work was carried out as part of a series of studies on internucleon interactions at low energies.
