Abstract: At deuteron energy of 37 MeV the 6He inclusive spectra are measured in the exit channel of reaction 7Li(d,6He)3He. The resonance-like structure of spectra in the range of 6He energies corresponding to the excitation of 3He recoil nuclei in the range of E* = 6…16 MeV was observed. The experimental data can be described in assumption of existence of 3He resonances with excitation energies of Е* = 9, 13 and 16 МеV. An analysis of the experimental spectra shows that observed structure of 6He spectra can be as well explained by the more probable processes of excitation and decay of 7Li and 7He unbound states in accompanied reaction channels.
