The topic of alpha-decay of the 02+ state in 12C, the so-called “Hoyle State”, gained a lot of interest in the past few years. The mechanism of the 3-α decay and the branching ratio of the direct and the sequential decay have a direct impact on the calculated rates for the triple-alpha process in Helium burning in stars. The Lund-York-Cologne-CAlorimeter (LYCCA), a 24-DSSSDs array, was employed for this kind of measurement at the 10-MV FN-tandem accelerator at the Institute for Nuclear Physics, University of Cologne. The excited state of 12C is obtained via an inelastic alpha scattering on a nat.C target and the outgoing alpha particles are detected in coincidence. LYCCA, a NUSTAR device, planned for FAIR@GSI, is a powerful setup coming with better angular coverage and better detector granularity compared to other measurements performed for the 3-α decay of the Hoyle state until now. Preliminary results from recent beam times are being presented in this talk. Supported by GSI F&E KREITE 1416.
