Experimental angular distributions in elastic and inelastic scattering to the $2^+$ (4.44 MeV), 0$^+_2$ (7.65 MeV) and 3$^-$ (9.63 MeV) states of $^{12}$C are well reproduced. It is found that the Airy minimum of the prerainbow oscillations for the Hoyle state is considerably shifted to a larger angle due to its dilute density distribution compared with that of the normal ground state in agreement with the idea of $\\alpha$ particle condensation.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-02-11T03:11:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "alpha particle condensation", "prerainbow oscillations", "hoyle state", "scattering", "normal ground state" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1142/9789812776150_0013" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 889456, "adsabs": "2011arXiv1102.2272O" } } }
