Abstract

Measurements of $^{12} C +^{12} C$ breakup of $^{24} Mg$ have been performed using targets containing carbon, oxygen, lithium, and beryllium. The excitation energy in $^{24} Mg$ was determined from the relative energy of the correlated $^{12} C$ fragments. The data provide the first evidence for the $^{12} C +^{12} C$ breakup of $^{24} Mg$ populated via the $^{16} O (^{24} Mg,$ $^{12} C^{12} C)^{16} O$ reaction.
