Abstract: (Elsevier)
The 12 Be spectrum is investigated in the Generator Coordinate Method, using microscopic 6 He + 6 He and α+ 8 He wave functions. The model is consistent with recent experimental observations of molecular states, but predicts a strong mixing of both configurations, rather than a dominant 6 He + 6 He structure. A negative-parity band is also found. Electromagnetic transition probabilities and partial widths of molecular states are calculated.
