     However the first excited state (${\displaystyle 0_{2}^{+}}$) has ${\displaystyle ^{12}}$C${\displaystyle +alpha}$ cluster structure and this state is largely affected by the increase of the strength; the subclosure configuration of the ${\displaystyle p_{3/2}}$ shell for the ${\displaystyle ^{12}}$C cluster part becomes more important than three ${\displaystyle alpha}$ configuration.
