Abstract

A strong resonancelike structure (∼400 keV wide) has been observed in elastic ${}^{16}O$ + ${}^{12}C$ scattering. Inelastic scattering excitation functions with ${}^{16}O$ in the unresolved $0^{+}$ , $3^{-}$ states at 6.1 MeV show structure correlated with the elastic channel. An analysis of the angular distribution measured on the resonance indicates a spin $I = 14$ .
