    The α-condensed state in nuclear systems has been proposed by Tohsaki et al. and given rise to interesting discussions. The Hoyle state of 12C has been studied as the most typical example of such an α-condensed state. A new resonant state (Er = 1.66 MeV, Γ = 1.48 MeV) is predicted as an excited α-condensed state in addition to the second 0+ state of the Hoyle state by calculations of the complex scaled 3α model. Based on this result, the breakup strengths of the inversion reaction for sequential (8Be + α → 12C + γ) and direct (α + α + α → 12C + γ) processes are calculated.
