Abstract
The (α,γO E2 cross section is calculated in the generator coordinate method where is described by three α particles located on the apexes of an equilateral triangle. Distortion effects in the wave functions are taken into account, and the wave functions are defined by a mixing of αC(,) configurations. The good quantum numbers are restored through angular momentum projection. We compute quadrupole transition probabilities between low-energy states, and the (α,γO E2 cross sections to the ground and states. At 300 keV, we find an S factor equal to 0.09 MeV b.
