Description
The reaction 12C(16O,7α) has been studied over the center-of-mass energy range from 37.7 MeV to 51.4 MeV, in a search for evidence for a 7-α chain state in 28Si. The yields of the 12C(02+)-12C(02+)-α and 12C(02+)-8Be-8Be final states agree broadly with previous measurements but contain no structure, indicating that a 28Si chain state is probably not being observed. The yields for the inelastic scattering reaction 12C+16O decaying to other excited states in 12C and 16O have also been studied. They also contain no gross structure
