Abstract

The reactions

{}^{12}C

(

{}^{16}O

,

α

)

{}^{24}{Mg}

and

{}^{13}C

(

{}^{16}O

,

α

)

{}^{25}{Mg}

were investigated at an incident energy of 145 MeV. In the reaction with the

{}^{12}C

target, broad peaks are observed at forward angles which correspond to the molecular resonance states of the

{}^{12}C

+

{}^{12}C

system, while the spectra with

{}^{13}C

target show only a smooth continuum.
