Abstract

We have searched for evidence of exotic cluster configurations in 24Mg resembling a linear chain of a particles in various many-particle final states of the 12C+12C system, including 12C(0 +2 )+12C(0 +2 ) and 8Be+16O*(4α). Such configurations are predicted to occur by a number of different theoretical models of the structure of 24Mg. An array of highly segmented double-sided silicon strip detectors permits detailed, high resolution reconstruction of these many-charged-particle final states.
