The P-odd asymmetry in the reaction 6Li (n,a) 3H has been measured in a beam of cold polarized neutrons at the VVR-M reactor at the Leningrad Institute of Nuclear Physics. The value found for the P-odd asymmetry coefficient, aQpg = —(6.4+5.5)XlO~8,is much smaller than a theoretical estimate incorporating the well-defined cluster structure of the 6Li and 7Li nuclei.
