  The 12C+12C sub-barrier fusion cross section is calculated within the
framework of a Time Dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) based classical model using
the Feynman Path Integral Method. The modified astrophysical S*-factor is
compared to direct and indirect experimental results. A good agreement with the
direct data is found. In the lower energy region, where recent analyses of
experimental data obtained with the Trojan Horse Method (THM) lead to
contrasting results, the model predicts an S* factor half way between those
results. Low energy resonances revealed in the THM data are added to the
calculation and the relative reaction rate in the Gamow region is calculated.
The role of different resonances is discussed in detail and their influence on
the reaction rate at temperatures relevant to stellar evolution is
investigated.
