Evidence for a C12 + C12 Collective Band in Mg24

Excitation functions of the reaction C12(C12, p)Na23 reveal a distinct set of resonances in the 112+, 132+, (152+), and (172+) members of the Na23 Kπ=32+ ground-state band near Ex(Mg24)=25.2, 28.2, and 33.3 MeV. These plus earlier data suggest the possible existence of an excited collective band in...

Excitation functions of the reaction C12(C12, p)Na23 reveal a distinct set of resonances in the 112+, 132+, (152+), and (172+) members of the Na23 Kπ=32+ ground-state band near Ex(Mg24)=25.2, 28.2, and 33.3 MeV. These plus earlier data suggest the possible existence of an excited collective band in Mg24 with very high deformation and large C12 + C12 width. Ausführliche Beschreibung
