Antisymmetric ..cap alpha..+ /sup 14/C/sub g.s./ and ..cap alpha..+ /sup 14/C(2/sub 1//sup +/) wave functions are used in the generator coordinate formalism to investigate molecular properties of /sup 18/O states. Quadrupole moments, rms radii, and reduced ..cap alpha.. widths of these states are calculated as well as reduced E1 and E2 transition probabilities between them. A number of molecular bands are found and analyzed. The assignment of experimental states to these bands is discussed. The alternating-parity band proposed by Gai et al. is interpreted as a fortuitous alignment of molecular states belonging to different bands.
