C12+C12intermediate structures correlated among elastic and reaction channels

Prominent intermediate structure correlations are suggested between /sup 12/C+/sup 12/C elastic and reaction channel excitation functions over a wide range of energies above the Coulomb barrier. The associated resonant states in /sup 24/Mg would have large partial widths to elastic, inelastic, and ..cap alpha..+/sup 20/Ne* channels.
