Resonance in the Two-Nucleon Transfer ReactionC12(C12,B10)N14

Abstract
The energy dependence of the reation C12(C12,B10)N14 has been studied in the range Ec.m.=2242 MeV. A striking resonance is observed at Ec.m.=30.75 MeV which correlates with a very pronounced structure in the C12+C12 inelastic channels. The total resonance cross section observed in the B10+N14 channel implies a reduced partial width comparable to those of the inelastic channels. These data suggest, for the first time, the possible importance of nucleon degrees of freedom in the structure of the C12+C12 resonances.
