Abstract

Excitation functions for the yields of ten residual nuclides from the ¹²C+¹²C reaction have been measured over the range E_c.m.=5.25-20.0 MeV in steps of 125 keV, using γ-ray techniques. Nearly all of the reaction channels, including those with light-particle evaporation, showed strong narrow structures. A qualitative statistical analysis performed on the data gave useful information about the locations of possible nonstatistical structure, based primarily on the very strong cross-channel correlation observed in the data set.
