The excited states of the "halo" nucleus, 11 Li, have been investigated by means of the pion capture reaction, 14 C͑p 2 , pd͒ 11 Li. Excited states have been identified at 1.02 6 0.07, 2.07 6 0.12, and 3.63 6 0.13 MeV. The continuum part of the 11 Li missing mass spectrum is found to contain a major component which is consistent with 11 Li breakup into one of the 9 Li excited states and two strongly correlated neutrons.
