Abstract
In the elastic angular distributions of the systems composed of tightly bound α-nuclei, 12C+12C, 16O+16O and 16O+12C, the higher-order Airy minima are observed in the energy region between 5 and 10 MeV per nucleon. The obtained optical potentials are deeply attractive and with incomplete absorption. The same potentials successfully describe the lower-energy (molecular resonances) and the higher-energy (first Airy minimum) data.
