A clustering aspect is explained for the $^9$Be nucleus in charged-lepton deep inelastic scattering. Nuclear modifications of the structure function $F_2$ are studied by the ratio $R_{\rm EMC} = F_2^A /F_2^D$, where $A$ and $D$ are a…
Cluster production is investigated in central collisions of Ca+Ca, Ni+Ni, 96Zr+96Zr, 96Ru+96Ru, Xe+CsI and Au+Au reactions at 0.4A GeV incident energy. We find that the multiplicity of clusters with charge Z > 2 grows quadratically with the…

We calculate the electric dipole moment (EDM) of the nuclei $^7$Li and $^{11}$B in the cluster model with $\alpha$ ($^4$He) and triton ($^3$H) clusters as degrees of freedom. The $^7$Li and $^{11}$B nuclei are treated in the two- and…
The charge of an electron in a cluster of n electrons is not ne but it is a fraction. We make many different clusters and calculate their charge per electron. We make 84 clusters and calculate the charge of an electron in these clusters.…
