| Description: |
The 3 alpha decay of the 16.62 MeV (2(-), T = 1) resonance in C-12 has been studied for nearly a century starting with one of the first nuclear reaction studies at the Cavendish Laboratory in the 1930s. In the hitherto latest study published a decade ago a model based on earlier work from the 1960s was found to give a good account of a set of inclusive data. This model describes the decay as an l = 3 alpha-particle populating the 2(+) state of Be-8. Here we provide new exclusive data on the 3 alpha decay of the 16.62 MeV resonance, and demonstrate that the decay is best described by a model with predominantly l = 1 emission with an admixture of l = 3.
