dc.descriptionThe complex scaled hyperspherical adiabatic expansion method is used to compute momentum and energy distributions of the three $α$-particles emerging from the decay of low-lying $^{12}$C-resonances. The large distance continuum properties of the wave functions are crucial and must be accurately calculated. We discuss separately decays of natural parity states: two $0^+$, one $1^{-}$, three $2^+$, one $3^-$, two $4^+$, one $6^+$, and one of each of unnatural parity, $1^{+}$, $2^-$, $3^+$, $4^-$. The lowest natural parity state of each $J^π$ decays predominantly sequentially via the $^{8}$Be ground state whereas other states including unnatural parity states predominantly decay directly to the continuum. We present Dalitz plots and systematic detailed momentum correlations of the emerging $α$-particles.
