Abstract

The experimental evidences for ⁵H are discussed. The results of the recent experiments are controversial. We make a comparison of the experimental data with theoretical calculations (L.V. Grigorenko, N.K. Timofeyuk, M.V. Zhukov, Eur. Phys. J. A 19, 181 (2004)) and try to find a consistent explanation for the current experimental situation. We conclude that more detailed experimental information is required to resolve the existing experimental ambiguity.
