Abstract
The six-ct decay of Mg-24 has been studied via the reaction N-13+ B-11 at two beam energies, 29.5 MeV and if 45 MeV. Large detector arrays allowed this reaction to be studied with low intensity radioactive N-13 beam. The excitation energy in the Mg-24* was in the region of the 46 MeV resonance in C-12+C-12 scattering. From the six-a particles, events of interest were selected by associating two of the a particle pairs as the decay products of Be-8. The c.m. energy spectra for two Be-8 + two alpha events have been extracted. The analysis revealed that most of these events originate from C-12(31)- + C-12(31)-. The total cross section for these six-alpha events has been extracted at the two beam energies. [S0556-2813(99)06902-2].
