Radiative Proton Capture on {sup 6}He

Radiative capture of protons is investigated as a probe of clustering in nuclei far from stability. The first such measurement on a halo nucleus is reported here for the reaction {sup 6}He( p,{gamma}) at 40MeV. Capture into {sup 7}Li is observed as the strongest channel. In addition, events have been recorded that may be described by quasifree capture on a halo neutron, the {alpha} core, and {sup 5}He . The possibility of describing such events by capture into the continuum of {sup 7}Li is also discussed.
