Multi-cluster dynamics in $^{13}_\Lambda{\rm C}$ and analogy to clustering in $^{12}{\rm C}$
Abstract
We investigate structure of and discuss the difference and similarity between the structures of and by answering the questions if the linear-chain and gaslike cluster states, which are proposed to appear in , survives, or new structure states appear or not. We introduce a microscopic cluster model called, Hyper-Tohsaki-Horiuchi-Schuck-R\"opke (H-THSR) wave function, which is an extended version of the THSR wave function so as to describe hypernuclei. We obtained two bound states and two resonance (quasi-bound) states for in , corresponding to the four states in . However, the inversion of level ordering between the spectra of and , i.e. that the and states in correspond to the and states in , respectively, is shown to occur. The additional particle reduces sizes of the and states in very much, but the shrinkage of the state is only a half of the other states. In conclusion, the Hoyle state becomes quite a compact object with configuration in and is no more gaslike state composed of the clusters. Instead, the state in , coming from the state, appears as a gaslike state composed of configuration, i.e. the Hoyle analog state. A linear-chain state in a hypernucleus is for the first time predicted to exist as the state in with more shrunk arrangement of the clusters along -axis than the linear-chain configuration realized in the state.
