Abstract
We analyze the inelastic scattering to the state of , the Hoyle state, in a fully microscopic framework. With no free adjustable parameter, the inelastic cross sections at forward angles are well reproduced by the microscopic reaction calculation using the transition density of obtained by the resonating group method and the nucleon-nucleon matrix interaction developed by the Melbourne group. It is thus shown that the monopole transition strength obtained by the structural calculation is consistent with that extracted from the reaction observable, suggesting no missing monopole strength of the Hoyle state.
