Abstract
In this work we study the low-lying excited states of12C, especially above the Hoyle state (0+, 7,654 MeV) through the use of the14N(d,α)12C reaction. The EN-Tandem at ININ delivered deuteron beams between 2.5 and 7.5 MeV. Typical beam intensities were 20-50 nA. Two different compounds were used to produce thin films: Si3N4 (150 nm) and of C5H5N5 (10 μm). Angular distributions of emitted α-particles were measured at each energy. The first results of the analysis are presented including quantum number assignments (energy, spin and parity) of the excited states populated.
