Parity of [tex]^{9}_{5}B^{5}[/tex]

[tirrel]

Hy... I'm reviewing some nuclear physics but don't remember certain topics.

This exercise for example:

Knowing that $$^{9}_{4}Be^{5}$$ and $$^{9}_{5}B^{4}$$ have both as quantum numbers $$\frac{3}{2}^{-}$$ and their properties are determined by the odd nucleon, show that the ground state of $$^{9}_{5}B^{5}$$ can be $$\frac{3}^{+}$$.

My thinkings, which are correct?:

First of all we see that $$^{9}_{5}B^{5}$$ has as outermost nucleons the odd nucleon of $$^{9}_{4}Be^{5}$$ and the odd nucleon of $$^{9}_{5}B^{4}$$. So $$I=I_1+I_2$$, and thanks to the rules of q.m. $$I \in \{0,1,2,3\}$$. 3 is present and we are happy.
So for both $$^{9}_{4}Be^{5}$$ and $$^{9}_{5}B^{4}$$ we have for the odd nucleon $$I=\frac{3}{2}$$. but thanks to the rules of angular momentum I=L+S and so since $$I=\frac{1}{2}$$, $$I \in \{l+\frac{1}{2},l-\frac{1}{2}\}$$ and this forces $$l \in \{1,2\}$$ , Now the parity is (-1)^l, so we are forced to have l=1 for both particles. I don't know is this is useful but I think is correct.
Now maybe we can say that the state in $$^{9}_{5}B^{5}$$ will be a superposition of vectors of the type $$v \otimes w$$, where the vector $$v$$ refers to one nucleon and the vector $$w$$ to the other. The parity on each member acts on each subspace: $$\Pi v \otimes w= \Pi_1 v \otimes \Pi w_2=(-1)^2v \otimes w$$. and so the parity is positive. This reasoning seem to tell that to find the parity I simply have to multplicate the parities of the individual nucleons. is it right? sounds strange...

ehm... the firs messag behaves strange and I'm not able to modify it... can you delete and leave only the second?:
