A=3 Clustering in Nuclei
Nuclear Theory
2011-12-21 v1
Abstract
Alpha clustering in nuclei, at present is a well studied and reasonably well accepted property of the nucleus. Less well appreciated and more ambiguous is the role of A=3 clustering, i.e. helion and triton, in nuclei. Here we try to place A=3 clustering in nuclei into its proper perspective, first by pointing out strong experimental evidences which indicate its clear presence in nuclei and secondly showing as to how to include these A=3 clusters in a proper and consistent theoretical understanding of the nuclear phenomenon.
