Abstract
The structure and decay dynamics for and continuum excitations of are investigated in a three-body model. The validity of a simple approximation for the cross section profile for long-lived emission is demonstrated. A sequence of three monopole (“breathing mode” type) excited states is predicted. These states could probably be interpreted as analogs of Efimov states pushed in the continuum due to insufficient binding. The calculated energies of the states are related to the excitation spectrum of . We discuss the correlation between the predicted spectrum and experimental observations.
