The pseudo-Semimicroscopic Algebraic Cluster Model model: Heavy nuclei

The Semimicroscopic Algebraic Cluster Model (SACM) is extended to heavy nuclei, making use of the pseudo-SU(3) model. As a first step, the concept of forbiddenness will be resumed. One consequence of the forbiddenness is that the ground state of a nucleus can in general be described by two internally excited clusters. After that, the pseudo- SACM is formulated. The basis of pseudo-SACM is constructed, defin- ing each cluster within the united nucleus with the same oscillator fre- quency and deformation of the harmonic oscillator as a mean field and dividing the nucleons in those within the unique and normal orbitals, consistently for both clusters and the united nucleus. As test cases, this model is applied to 236U $\rightarrow$ 210Pb+26Ne and 224Ra $\rightarrow} 210Pb+14C. Some spectroscopic factors will be calculated as predictions.
