Abstract
The complex optical potential and inelastic form factor given by the folding model for the $\alpha+^{12}$C scattering are used to calculate the ($\alpha,\alpha'$) cross sections for the known isoscalar states of $^{12}$C in an elaborate coupled channel approach. The strengths of the form factors for these states are then fine tuned against the ($\alpha,\alpha'$) data to deduce the corresponding $E\lambda$ transition strengths. A significant $E2$ transition strength has been obtained for the $2^+_2$ state from the present analysis of the ($\alpha,\alpha'$) data measured at $E_\alpha=240$ and 386 MeV. The $E\lambda$ transition strengths of the $0^+_2,\ 3^-_1,\ 0^+_3,$ and $1^-_1$ states were also carefully deduced, and some difference from the results of earlier analyses has been found and qualitatively understood.
