Elastic and inelastic scattering of the 12C ions by the 12C nucleus at energy 61 MeV

The angular distributions of the elastic and inelastic 12С ions scattering on the 12С nuclei were measured at the energy of Elab(12C) = 65 MeV for the transitions to the ground and 4.44 МеV (2+) excited states of 12C. From the data analysis within the framework of the optical model and coupled reaction model the channel parameters of Woods-Saxon optical potential and 12C deformation parameter were found, which provide satisfactory description of the 12C + 12C scattering angular distributions. The energy dependence of the optical model parameters for the 12C + 12C interactions was studied.
