The disintegration of 12C into three α-particles by inelastic scattering of fast neutrons has been studied by the photographic plate method. Measurements made on 168 of the stars formed by this disintegration have been used to identify the reaction and to obtain values of the cross-section for the process at neutron energies between 10.8 MeV. and 14.5 MeV. No evidence was found for anisotropic scattering of the neutrons.
