ELECTROMAGNETIC PROPERTIES OF THE LOW-LYING STATES OF C-12 IN THE OSCILLATING DROP MODEL

Abstract

The electromagnetic properties of the first four states of 6C6(12) are discussed within the framework of the incompressible drop model. The radius of the drop is determined by the elastic electron scattering from the ground state. ByADJUSTING THE MASS AND SURFACE TENSION OF THE DROP TO FIT THE ENERGY AND LIFETIME FOR Gammadecay of the first excited state, one obtains agreement with the inelastic scattering cross sections from both the first and second excited states. The third excited state is interpreted as an octupole vibration through the inelastic electron scattering cross section. The total electromagnetic decay width of the second excited state, which is of astrophysical interest, is also calculated. (Author)
