Abstract
The presence of a low-lying 1s1/2 virtual state in the n+Li-9 system, when included in Faddeev three-body calculations, has a pronounced eff ect on the structure of the Li-11 halo. The resulting Li-9 momentum di stributions, calculated in the Serber model, have a narrow width compa rable with the experimental data. The structure of Li-11 would then ha ve nearly 50% of s-wave motion between the neutrons and the core. The three-body system may also approximately fulfill the conditions for th e appearance of Efimov states, and there may exist low-lying excited s tates near the breakup threshold.
