Abstract
A recent study of the OBeNe and O,αMg reactions has led, through cross channel correlation analysis, to the identification of two superdeformed shape isomeric states in at excitation energies of 43.7 and 46.2 MeV. We suggest that both these states may have α-αO-α nuclear molecule structure. Our suggestion is supported theoretically by cranked cluster model calculations and experimentally by previous studies of the C,ααO reaction, C scattering, and the NeCBe transfer reaction.
