Abstract

Excited states in ¹²C nuclei play a very important role in the nucleosynthesis in the universe. ¹²C nuclei are synthesized by the triple α reaction. Normally the triple α process proceeds via the state (Hoyle states) at E_x = 7.65 MeV in ¹²C. However, at high temperature T > 10⁹, the highly excited 3α resonance states such as the state at E_x = 9.64 MeV might play a part of the triple α reaction. Unfortunately, the γ-decay probability of the state has not been determined, therefore we planned to measure ¹H(¹²C, ¹²Cp) reaction without measuring γ-rays. The test experiment using the solid hydrogen target and GAGG(Gd₃Al₂Ga₃O₁₂) was recently carried out at the cyclotron facility in RCNP. The results of the test experiment are reported in this paper.
