Abstract Measuring energy spectra of nuclei afterγ-decay of excited states in flight the spin alignment of12C2+ states has been measured. Inelastic scattering,16O(16C,12C2+)16O and the reaction12C(16O,12C2+)16O leading to12C2+ (4.43 MeV) state have been studied. Characteristic line shapes of the12C2+ peak were observed using a Q3D magnetic spectrometer. The magnetic substate (m-states) population has been deduced from the spectra as function of reaction angle. A comparison of the measuredm-state population with reaction models shows that the first reaction is consistent with inelastic scattering although discrepancies remain. Discrepancies are also obtained if the reaction12C(16O,12C2+)16O is interpreted using a FRDWBA transfer calculation. At least 1/3 of the cross section can be attributed toα-transfer. A calculation which couples transfer and inelastic scattering channels seems to be necessary.
