Popis: | We present new measurements of the α + 12C elastic and inelastic (to the states 4.44, 7.65, and 9.64 MeV) scattering at Elab = 110 MeV in the wide angular range from ∼10° to 175°, which enable us to examine the condensate and cluster properties of the low-lying excited states in 12C. We present the diffraction-radius analysis of our data together with a considerable amount of the existing data. The magnitudes of the diffraction radii for the ground and the first excited (4.44 MeV) states are found to be equal, whereas they appear to be enhanced by ∼0.6 fm both for 7.65 and 9.64 MeV states. This result shows that the radius of the Hoyle’s 02+, 7.65 MeV state in 12C is by a factor of ∼1.2–1.3 larger than that of the ground state. It is demonstrated that the direct transfer mechanism of 8Be dominates at the largest angles in all four reactions reported here. The configuration corresponding to the transfer of 8Be in its ground state (Iπ = 0+) with L = 0 turns out to be the most important for the 7.65 MeV state of 12C. Evidence of existence of some features of α-condensed structure of the Hoyle’s 02+ state in 12C was obtained: its enhanced radius and large contribution of α-particle configuration with L = 0. |
