3α clustering in excited states of ¹⁶C

NUCLEAR STRUCTURE ¹⁶C; calculated energy curve of 0+ states as functions of quadrupole deformation parameter, density distribution contours, levels, J, π, bands, proton and neutron root-mean-square radii, B(E2) for the ground, triangular, and linear-chain configurations of the ⁸He+⁸Be, ⁶He+¹⁰Be and ⁴He+¹²Be clusters. Prediction of the presence of rotational bands associated with 3α cluster states, and yrast 10+ state at 27.8 MeV. Antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (AMD) calculations for 3α clusters.
