Abstract

Recent key experimental results on the spectroscopy of 12C have been made, which, when taken together, provide much needed clarity on the structure of the ground- and Hoyle- state excitations and provided new avenues for future research. High excitation energies in light nuclei are being explored with evermore precision and recent examples of this in 12C, 16O and 20Ne are presented. These steps forward are examined and the outstanding issue of clustering versus condensation explored.
