THE ROLE OF LINEAR ALPHA-CLUSTER CONFIGURATION FOR 12C

Abstract

In the framework of the Alpha Cluster Model extended calculations of form factors of elastic and inelastic [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] (7.66 MeV) electron scattering on 12C were performed. Two possible alpha cluster configurations (linear and triangular) were considered for states assigned to different rotational bands and although the configuration mixture was found to be important for explanation of the inelastic monopole form factor, a fully consistent picture, including all available data, was not obtained.
