1. Sharp peak in np pair(5ΛHe) at Q value.
FSI negligible in He.2. Broad spec in nn (5ΛHe). FSI? No. π - absorption or 2N? π - can not make it broad.
Seems 3B spectrum!!3. Ynp(C); FSI is significant.
4. Ynn(C); Even further degraded. Again points to 3B decay.

Now Γ n/Γ p ratio is well determined removing the ambiguities of
FSI and 2N.
Then what has been the reason of the Γ n/Γ p puzzle ??

Summary
1.The coincidence exclusive measurements of each NMWD channel, Λnnn and Λpnp, accurately determined Г n/ Г p ~0.5 for 5
He and 12ΛC.
2.The underlying reason for the long-stood Γ n/Γ p puzzle.
The Quenching of nucleon yields.
3. The 3-body weak decay process, ie Γ 2n, provides a good mechanism to explain the quenching.
4. Both singles and coincidence yields indicate a fairly large Γ 2N comparable to Γ n, but with less than 2σ stat. significance.
5. Now the accurate measurement ofГ 2N becomes so important that we have to measure it before each determination ofГ n andГ p. J-PARC Proposal P18.

Rough Estimation of Γ2N
1. Consider the Nnpnbb all due to FSI. Then subtract the corresponding FSI amou
nt from Nnnnbb. The remainder would be N2N. This give us a kind of lower limit o
f Γ 2N which is about ~18% of Γ nm.
2. Use INC calculation result to estimate the FSI component in Nnpnbb. Then it wi
ll give ~30% of Γ nm.
