Reaction mechanism of the /sup 12/C(/sup 3/He,. cap alpha. )/sup 11/C reaction

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
The mechanism of the reactions /sup 12/C(/sup 3/He, ..cap alpha..)/sup 11/C leading to the (3/2)/sup -/ ground state and (5/2)/sup -/ second excited state of /sup 11/C is studied using finite-range distorted-wave Born approximation with all one-step direct and exchange processes. By taking into account in detail the cluster structure of /sup 11/C and /sup 12/C, the transition to the (5/2)/sup -/ state which is a j forbidden direct process can be explained well by the exchange process.
