Abstract
The astrophysical S-factor for O + O is investigated within the adiabatic molecular picture. It very well explains the available experimental data. The collective radial mass causes a pronounced resonant structure in the S-factor excitation function, providing a motivation for measuring the O + O fusion cross section at deep sub-barrier energies.
