Structure of the Excited States in ¹²C. II

Abstract

Nuclear wave functions of microscopic α-particle, model, which were obtained in the generator coordinate calculation by the present authors, are found to reproduce properties of low energy levels of ¹²C nucleus, i. e., α-decay widths, electric transitions and charge form factors for electron scattering. Especially calculated widths of the 0₂⁺ and 10.3MeV levels are found to be in excellent agreement with experiment, assuming that the spin of the latter is 2. The monopole transition from the 0₂⁺ state to the ground state is also well reproduced as well as the E2 transition to the 2₁⁺ state. Furthermore analysis of the reduced width amplitudes is made which clarifies characters of the levels. It is found that in the 0₂⁺ and 10.3MeV states an α-particle is coupled mainly to the ⁸Be ground state with orbital angular momenta l equal to 0 and 2 respectively. In the predicted higher positive-parity states 0₃⁺, 2₃⁺ and 4₂⁺, an α-particle is coupled mainly to the first excited state of ⁸Be with l equal to 2.
