Abstract

In order to test the 16^{16}C internal wave function, we perform microscopic coupled-channels (MCC) calculations of the 16^{16}C(01+21+0_1^+ \to 2_1^+) inelastic scattering by 208^{208}Pb target at E/AE/A=52.7 MeV using the antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (AMD) wave functions of 16^{16}C, and compare the calculated differential cross sections with the measured ones. The MCC calculations with AMD wave functions reproduce the experimental data fairly well, although they slightly underestimate the magnitude of the cross sections. The absolute magnitude of calculated differential cross sections is found to be sensitive to the neutron excitation strength. We prove that the MCC method is a useful tool to connect the inelastic scattering data with the internal wave functions.
