The decay structure of the particle-unstable nucleus 10Li was studied using the method of sequential neutron decay spectroscopy (SNDS) at 0°. The decay energies of 10Li can be derived from the relative velocity spectrum of the 9Li daughter and the neutron measured in coincidence. Evidence for low-lying s-wave strength was observed with a scattering length of <-20 fm, corresponding to a peak energy of <50 keV.
