We discuss the correlation of the spin-singlet two-neutron pair, the dineutron correlation, in the ground and excited $0^+$ states of $^8$He by using a method to describe the dineutron correlation in neutron-rich nuclei, the dineutron…
Background: The four-neutron correlation has been attracting much attention for decades. In addition to the study on the tetra-neutron system, it is worthwhile to investigate the correlation in bound systems. Purpose: The $^8$He nucleus is…
The hyper-radial barrier strongly hinders formation of more than three clusters. We investigate how well the dominating cluster components in $^7$He and $^8$He, respectively can be described as $\alpha$+$n$+$^2n$ and $\alpha$+$^2n$+$^2n$,…
The $0_2^+$ state of ${}^8\mathrm{He}$ has been discovered by a recent experiment, which suggested a developed cluster structure of spatially correlated neutron pairs, called "dineutrons" (${}^2n$). We aim to investigate the structure of…
We study the spatial structure of four valence neutrons in the ground state of $^8$He and $^{18}$C nuclei using a core+4$n$ model. For this purpose, we employ a density-dependent contact interaction among the valence neutrons, and solve the…
Cluster structures of excited $^{10}$Be states are investigated with a hybrid model of dineutron condensate wave functions and $^6$He+$\alpha$ cluster wave functions. Two kinds of cluster states are theoretically suggested a few MeV above…
The structure of $^8$He is investigated within a three-cluster microscopic model. The three-cluster configuration $\alpha+^2n+^2n$ was used to describe the properties of the ground state of the nucleus. The obtained results evidently…
Recent experiments clearly demonstrate the importance of the excited state $2^+$ at 1.8 MeV in the substruture ${^6}He$ for the ground state of the nucleus ${^8}He$. It is shown here that this means that the ground state structure of…
We propose a new framework by means of the dineutron condensate (DC) wave function to describe the dineutron correlation, which is characterized by the spatially strong correlation of a spin-zero neutron-neutron pair, in neutron-rich nuclei…
In order to study non-zero spin excitations of the recently proposed alpha-cluster condensation in the self-conjugate 4n nuclei, spatial deformation is introduced into the model wave function of the alpha-cluster condensate. The rotational…
The structures of the ground and excited states of 12Be were studied with antisymmetrized molecular dynamics. The ground state was found to be a state with a developed 2-alpha core with two neutrons occupying the intruder orbits. The energy…
We investigate the multineutron excitations of neutron-rich $^8$He in the electric dipole strength using a $^4$He+$n$+$n$+$n$+$n$ five-body model. Many-body unbound states of $^8$He are obtained in the complex scaling method. We found that…
The 0+ ground state of the 10He nucleus produced in the 3H(8He,p)10He reaction was found at about $2.1\pm0.2$ MeV (\Gamma ~ 2 MeV) above the three-body 8He+n+n breakup threshold. Angular correlations observed for 10He decay products show…
The two-neutron RPA model has been used to describe helium isotopes with N (the neutron number) = 4, 6, 7, 8 in their ground and excited states. The properties of all these isotopes are given by a single system of equations so that their…
The continuum of $^{10}$He nucleus is studied theoretically in a three-body $^{8}$He+$n$+$n$ model basing on the recent information concerning $^9$He spectrum [Golovkov, \textit{et al.}, Phys. Rev. C \textbf{76}, 021605(R) (2007)]. The…
The quest to understand multi-neutron systems has a long history, and recent experimental efforts aim to probe candidate four-neutron configurations in neutron-rich light nuclei such as ${}^8$He and ${}^7$H via quasi-free knockout…
The weak binding and spatially extended neutron densities characteristic of drip-line nuclei give rise to a distinctive low-energy dipole response. The drip-line nucleus $^8$He is the most neutron-rich bound nucleus with a mass-to-charge…
Two-neutron densities obtained from microscopic wave functions of $^6$He and $^8$He are investigated to reveal di-neutron correlations. In particular, the comparison of the two-neutron density with the product of one-neutron densities is…
We investigated the development and breaking of the dineutron correlation in $^{10}$Be by analyzing the elastic and inelastic scatterings with a framework combing the microscopic structure and reaction models. For studying the structure,…
