relevant to simulation for our experiment when gamma is well above 
threshold?

     The 16O nucleus was investigated through the 15N(p,{\alpha})12C 
reaction at excitation energies from Ex = 12 231 to 15 700 keV using 
proton beams from a 5 MeV Van de Graaff accelerator at beam energies of 
Ep = 331 to 3800 keV. Alpha decay from resonant states in 16O was 
strongly observed for ten known excited states in this region. The 
candidate 4-alpha cluster state at Ex = 15.1 MeV was investigated 
particularly intensely in order to understand its particle decay channels.
