Data on the α cluster structure in NZ nuclei are very scarce, however a recent work [1] showed unusual features of α cluster states in these nuclei. It was also shown in [1] that a comparison study of mirror α cluster states in T=1 nuclei can result in understanding of some details of nuclear structure resulting in α cluster configuration. Besides this, the astrophysical impact of the knowledge of the ^14O+ α interaction is well known. We report the use of an ^14O beam at the Texas A&M University [2], produced by MARS facilities [3], to study resonances in the ^14O+ α interaction. The α-^14O resonance interaction was studied using the Thick Target Inverse Kinematics (TTIK) method. The time of flight method, providing for the possibility of the identification of low energy particles, was used to identify reaction products. Nine states with large α cluster reduced widths were found in ^18Ne in the excitation energy region 8-16 MeV. The alpha structure in ^18Ne and in ^18O is discussed using results obtained in on ^14C+α interaction. References [1] V. Z. Goldberg et al., Phys. Rev. C 69, 024602 (2004). [2] V. Z.
