Cross-section measurements of the 9Be,12C(α,2α) reaction at 580 MeV bombarding energy are presented. The data are compared with distorted-wave impulse approximation calculations. The agreement between theory and experiment suggests a dominance of the quasifree knockout mechanism. The extracted α-particle spectroscopic factors are in reasonable agreement with theory and proton-induced knockout reactions, unlike measurements for the (α,2α) reaction at energies <~140 MeV, but still show significant angular dependence.
